List of Messages that Appear on the Screen
155
Cannot select!
• When selecting the selection range (pp. 119, 121, 124), you tried to select a
starting image that was after the last image or you tried to select an ending
image that was before the starting image.
• You tried to select more than 501 images (pp. 119, 121, 124).
Too many marks.
• You selected more than 998 images to send in print settings. Select less than
998 images (p. 133).
Cannot complete!
• Print settings could not be saved correctly. Reduce the number of settings and
try again (p. 133).
Naming error!
• The file name could not be created because there is an image with the same
name as the folder that the camera is attempting to create, or the highest
possible file number has already been reached (p. 141). In the 3 menu, change
[File Numbering] to [Auto Reset] (p. 140) or format the memory card (p. 52).
Communication error
• Images could not be transferred to the computer or printed due to the large
amount of images (approx. 1000) stored on the memory card. Use a
commercially available USB card reader to transfer the images. Insert the
memory card into the printer's card slot to print.

• A lens error was detected. Press the power button to turn the camera off and
back on (p. 42). If this error message continues to display, contact your Canon
Customer Support Help Desk as there may be a problem with the lens.
• This error can occur if you hold the lens while it is in motion or when using it in a
location with excessive dust or sand in the air.
Exx (xx: number)
• A camera error was detected. Press the power button to turn the camera off and
back on (p. 42).
• If an error code displays directly after taking a picture, the shot may not have
been recorded. Check image in playback mode.
• If this error code reappears, note the number and contact your Canon Customer
Support Help Desk as there may be a problem with the camera.
