When the camera is connected to your computer, the viewfinder light will be blinking red, and the Display is blank. The images in the camera are automatically unloaded to your computer.

NOTE If you are using a Macintosh computer, you must change the USB Configuration setting to Disk Drive. For more information, refer to Chapter 1, Getting Started.

To conserve battery power, use an optional HP AC adapter when unloading images to your computer. The HP AC adapter may be purchased separately.

Now that your images are stored on your computer, you can print them, send them by e-mail, and organize them with ease.

Printing your images

As mentioned in Chapter 3, you can print images by using the

option from the Playback menu. When you select images for printing, you create a print order, which then creates a Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) file. This file is stored with your images in memory. By using a print order, you can select one image, several images, or all of the images that you have stored in the camera.

When you transfer images from the camera to your computer, the print order is copied along with them. The

HP Photo Imaging software reads the print order and prints the images that you selected. For more information, refer to the software’s Help.
