Printing from a Memory Card

You can print photos directly from your digital camera’s memory card—and you don’t even have to connect the Stylus Photo RX500 to a computer.

Printing an Index Sheet

In most cases, you’ll want to print an index sheet before printing photos from your memory card. An index sheet lets you see small thumbnail images of the pictures on your card and select the ones you want to print.

1.Make sure the Stylus Photo RX500 is not connected to your computer (or your computer is turned off) and the Stylus Photo RX500 is turned on.

2.Open the memory card cover, and make sure the memory card light is off and that no cards are in any of the slots. Then insert your card into the correct slot (see page 3).

Once the card is inserted, the Stylus Photo RX500 reads and displays the number of printable images on the card.

3.Press the Memory Card button on the control panel. Print Index appears on the LCD screen.

4.Press OK.

5.Load several sheets of letter-size paper. (If there are more than 36 images on the card, you will need multiple sheets of paper.)

6.Press the x Color button to print the index. After the index sheet prints, Scan Index appears on the LCD screen.

Selecting Photos To Print

You can select the photos you want to print either by filling in the ovals on the index sheet and scanning the sheet, or by selecting photos from the control panel.
