Printing photos

You can print photos without a computer in several different ways:

Insert a memory card with photos on it into one of the memory card slots on the printer

Connect an HP direct-printing digital camera to the USB port on the rear of the printer

Connect a PictBridge digital camera to the camera port on the front of the printer

Install the optional HP Bluetooth® wireless printer adapter and print from a digital camera with Bluetooth wireless technology

Receive and print HP Instant Share photos if the printer connected to an Ethernet network

Printing photos from a memory card

You can print photos from a memory card by inserting the card into the printer and using the printer control panel to view, select, enhance, and print photos. You can also print camera-selected photos—photos you marked for printing using a digital camera—directly from a memory card. If the digital camera records video clips, you can view the video clips on the printer screen and select individual frames for printing.

Printing from a memory card is quick and easy, and does not drain the digital camera batteries.
