Using a card reader

You can use a CF memory card reader, such as the SanDisk ImageMate or a PCMCIA adapter, to view and save image files on your computer. If you have saved your images to a CF memory card and you have a card reader installed on your computer, insert the CF memory card into the card reader. Then, access your images on the CF memory card just as you would access files on a floppy disk. See your card reader’s documentation for details.

Card readers can be purchased from www.hpshopping.com (selected countries/regions only), or from your local digital camera or electronics store.
