Printing photos from a memory card

You can print photos from a memory card by inserting the card into the printer and using the printer control panel to select, enhance, and print photos. You can also print camera-selected photos—photos you marked for printing using a digital camera— directly from a memory card.

Printing from a memory card is quick and easy, and does not drain the digital camera batteries. For more information on inserting memory cards, see Inserting memory cards.

Printing from a memory card is easy. This section tells you how to do the following:

●Insert a memory card

●Decide which photos to print

●Select a photo layout

●Select photos

●Improve photo quality

●Print the selected photos

Inserting memory cards

After you have taken pictures with a digital camera, you can remove the memory card from the camera and insert it into the printer to print your photos or save them to a computer. The printer can read the following types of memory cards: CompactFlash™, Memory Sticks, Microdrive™, MultiMediaCard™, Secure Digital™, and xD-Picture Card™.

Caution Using any other type of memory card may damage the memory card and the printer.

To learn about other ways of transferring photos from a digital camera to the printer, see Connecting to other devices.
