What are Canon Utilities?
Canon Utilities are application softwares included in the “BJ Solution Disk” or

utilities enable you to display, save (import) to hard disk, edit, print the images captured by digital
cameras or scanners.

ImageBrowser allows you to display a list of thumbnails (images stored in the internal memory
card), import them to your computer, and print them in photo-quality using the BJ printer. With
ImageBrowser, you can easily display, edit, and manage images stored in your computer’s hard disk
as well.
PhotoStitch
PhotoStitch is an utility program for image merging and allows you to quickly create panoramic
photos by merging multiple images captured with your digital camera.
With PhotoStitch, you can merge any number of images vertically or horizontally, producing unique
posters or other photo-prints.The wide-mode merging feature is also useful when you want to create
a wide panoramic photo of a building or straight-lined object with straight lines as natural as the
original.
