∫Setting the date printing with the DPOF print in advance

When the printer supports the date printing by DPOF setting, we recommend setting the date printing with the DPOF print in advance. (P84) The recording date can be printed by selecting [DPOF PICTURE] to start printing.

•The setting on the printer may have priority over the setting on the camera in the date print. Also check the date print setting on the printer.

•If the printer does not support date printing, the date cannot be printed on the picture.

Layout printing

•When printing a picture several times on 1 sheet of paper

For example, if you want to print a picture 4 times on 1 sheet of paper, set [PAGE LAYOUT] to [ ] and then set the number of prints to 4 for the picture on [NUM. OF PRINTS].

•When printing different pictures on 1 sheet of paper (only in DPOF printing)

For example, if you want to print 4 different pictures on 1 sheet of paper, set [PAGE LAYOUT] to [ ] and then set the number of prints to 1 on [COUNT] in DPOF print setting (P83) for each of the 4 pictures.

When printing with PictBridge

•Do not disconnect the USB connection

cable when the cable disconnection warning icon [ ] is indicated.

•When the [¥] indication lights in yellow during printing, make sure there is no malfunction on the printer.

•When the printer does not support TIFF print, you cannot print pictures of which quality is TIFF.

•In DPOF print, if the total number of prints or the number of printed pictures is high, pictures are printed several times. (The indication of the remaining number of prints is different from the setting, however, this is not a malfunction.)
