PRINTING IMAGES

If you take a memory card to a professional print service, be sure to tell them that it includes DPOF settings for the images to be printed and the number of copies. If you don’t, the printing service may print all images without regard to your DPOF settings, or date printing may not be performed.

Note that some professional print services do not support DPOF printing. Check with your service before ordering prints.

Some printers may have settings that disable date stamp and/or DPOF printing. See the user documentation that comes with your printer for details about how to enable these features.

If you use the DPOF setting to turn on date stamping for printing on an image that already has date/time stamp data embedded in it (page 147), the two stamps will be superimposed. Because of this, do not turn on DPOF date stamping if an image already has a date/time stamp embedded on it.

Using PictBridge or USB DIRECT-PRINT

You can connect the camera directly to a printer that supports PictBridge or USB DIRECT-PRINT, and perform image selection and printing using the camera monitor screen and controls. DPOF support (page 211) also lets you specify which images you want to print and how many copies of each should be printed.

PictBridge is a standard

established by the Camera and Imaging Products Association (CIPA).

USB DIRECT-PRINT is a standard proposed by Seiko Epson Corporation.
