	PictBridge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		PictBridge is an industry standard from the Camera and Imaging Products Association (CIPA) for direct printing.
		PictBridge is sometimes described as an open standard, whereas in fact the specification can only be obtained from CIPA after agreement not to disclose any information from the specification to others (section 2.2 of the agreement).
		For example, this probably means that PictBridge cannot be implemented by [Free/Libre/Open-Source Software] other than by reverse-engineering the protocol (perhaps aided by the white paper that CIPA do provide), if publishing source code of an implementation of the PictBridge standard counts as “disclosing information” from the specification.

	[No title]
		PictBridge is a smart way to enable direct printing from any PictBridge compliant DSC to any PictBridge compliant printer, regardless of the manufacturer.
		In PictBridge, USB is used as a physical layer, and PTP is used as the transport layer protocol.
		PictBridge defines a scenario where the user creates the intended print job on the DSC and then sends a print job to the print server, which then pulls the image files from the storage server on the DSC.
