      Michael Dickerson Jr.Sep 18, 2025
      With some PictBridge-compatible printers, the PictBridge startup screen may not be displayed and it may be impossible to print images when Auto is selected for Charge by computer. Set Charge by computer to Off and reconnect the camera to the printer.

    What does it mean when the monitor is off, and the power-on lamp flickers on Nikon Coolpix P300 Digital Camera?
    • W
      whiteheadrebekahSep 9, 2025
      If the monitor on your Nikon Digital Camera is off and the power-on lamp flickers, it means the battery temperature is high. Turn off the camera and allow the battery to cool down before resuming use. After the lamp blinks for three minutes, the camera turns off automatically, but you can also press the power switch to turn it off manually.
