3 Print basics

Printing photos directly from your camera is the easiest and fastest way to turn your digital photos into outstanding prints.

This section describes how to print from digital cameras using a direct USB connection and PictBridge technology, and how to improve the quality of your prints using the printer's built-in automatic photo correction feature.

NOTE: Although this chapter describes the procedure for printing from a PictBridge digital camera, the procedure for printing from other PictBridge devices—such as camera phones and video phones—is very similar. Review the documentation that came with your PictBridge device for specific information.

Print from a PictBridge-certified camera

You can print photos by connecting a PictBridge-certified digital camera directly to the PictBridge port on the top of the printer with a USB cable. When you print from your digital camera, the printer uses the settings that you selected on the camera. For more information, see the documentation that came with your camera.

Make sure you have turned on the printer and inserted an HP 110 Tri-color Inkjet print cartridge before you try to print.

NOTE: If you connect a non-HP camera and encounter problems while printing, see the documentation that came with your camera. HP is not able to provide technical support for non-HP cameras.

To print using a PictBridge-certified camera

1.Turn on your PictBridge digital camera. Make sure the USB configuration is set to Digital Camera, so that your camera is able to successfully connect to the printer and print photos.

2.Load photo paper into the printer.

The printer automatically prints using the best quality settings for HP Advanced Photo Paper. To change the paper type or quality settings, print your photos from a computer. For more information on printing from a computer, see the electronic Help.

NOTE: With some digital cameras, you can print using Normal print quality for faster prints. The print quality may be noticeably lower, especially if you are not using HP Advanced Photo Paper. Print quality is best when Best print quality is selected. See your camera documentation for details.

3.Connect your camera to the PictBridge port on the top of the printer using the USB cable for the camera. The PictBridge light turns solid green when the connection is established.

4.Use the menu on your camera image display to select and print photos. Refer to your camera documentation for details. The On light and the PictBridge light flash while the photos are printing.

Important: Your photos are instantly dry, and can be handled immediately after they are printed. However, HP recommends that you leave the printed surface of your photos
