There's a little command line utility out on freshmeat for the canon elph
called "s10sh".
Just hookup the usb cable and type s10sh -ug , sucks all the pics off of the
camera and dumps them in you present working directory.  It works well for
people too cheap to go and buy yet another digital film reader.  I think it
works on all the canon s series cameras.

What kind of printer and camera?

If the camera uses Compact flash, you can just buy a SanDisk SDDR-31 usb
reader, and mount the card as a disk (there's an equivalent for SmartMedia
also).  This is what I do for my digital Elph.  Much faster than the crappy
software that came with the camera anyway.  Gphoto supports a number of
cameras also.

I know USB printers work, but I'm not sure which ones.  Mandrake has a
really nice utility called PrinterDrake which will set it all up for you.
