PictBridge digital cameras can check for printer capabilities and let the user access these capabilities through the digital camera user interface.

- Specifying print size
Media size and image size can be specified by the digital camera. For example, it’s possible to print six business-card-size images onto a single A4 sheet.

- Multiple-copy printing
Enables the convenience of printing several copies of the same picture at a time.

- Page-layout printing
Makes it possible to print several different images on a single sheet.
Printing can also be set so as to be borderless or to include date stamps.

These convenient functions must be supported by both the digital camera and printer, and are not necessarily available on all devices.
