Printing Without a Computer

This section describes how to print directly from a memory card, USB storage device, or PictBridge-
enabled or other compatible camera.

Printing Tips

• Before you print, make sure the power is connected, and the photo cartridge and photo paper
are loaded. For help, see your
Setting Up Your Printer
poster.
• Printing starts when you press
Print
. The photo paper cycles 4 times during the printing
process. The first 3 passes apply layers of yellow, magenta, and cyan color. The fourth pass
applies the Dell Clear Life Coating that protects and preserves the photo.
NOTE: If you remove the card or disconnect the camera during printing, then printing will stop when the
current photo is printed.
• For advanced print options (color and auto brightness, layouts, index prints, etc.), press the
Menu
button. For help, see page 17.
NOTICE: Wait until a print is finished before removing it from the paper tray. Failure to do so can cause
paper misfeeds or jams and can damage the printer.
NOTICE: Do not load more than 20 sheets into the paper tray.

Printing From a Memory Card

You can print directly from a CF (CompactFlash), SD (Secure Digital), MS (Memory Stick),
MMC (MultiMedia Card), or SM (Smart Media), or a USB memory key.
NOTE: Your printer reads only one memory source at a time. Printing is disabled if multiple sources
(cards or camera) are loaded or connected.
