HP A310 manual Transfer photos from your camera to a computer

Note The USB cable required for printing from a computer might not be included in the box with the printer, so you might need to purchase it separately. If you purchased an HP camera in the box with the printer, you can use the USB cable included with the camera. The required USB 2.0 high speed cable has a mini Type B 5-pin male connector at one end and a Type A male connector at the other end. The mini Type B end connects to the back of the printer, and the Type A end connects to a computer. HP recommends using a USB cable less than 3 meters (10 feet) long to minimize injected noise due to potentially high electromagnetic fields.

Be sure to download the latest software update every couple of months to ensure you have the latest features and improvements.
