Getting Started

Congratulations on your purchase of this digital camera! This camera has many features to enhance your picture-taking experience, including HP Instant ShareTM, direct printing capability, manual and automatic controls, on-camera Help, and an optional camera dock.

With HP Instant Share, you can easily select images in your camera to be automatically sent to your favorite destinations (such as e-mail addresses and online albums) the next time you connect the camera to your computer. Your friends and family can easily receive and view your pictures in e-mail without being burdened by large file attachments. And with the direct printing capability, you can easily select images in your camera to be automatically printed the next time you connect the camera to your computer or directly to any HP Photosmart printer or other select HP printers without ever connecting to your computer.

To further enhance your experience, you may purchase an HP Photosmart 8881 camera dock. The camera dock allows you to easily download images to a computer, send images to a printer or television, and recharge the camera batteries. It also provides a convenient home for your camera.

NOTE A dock insert is included in your camera box. Please do not discard it, because it enables your camera to use the optional HP 8881 camera dock. See page 129 for instructions on how to use the camera dock.
