5 Transferring and printing images

You can transfer images and video clips with or without the HP Photosmart Software that came with your camera. However, the HP Photosmart Software has several features for transferring and managing your images and also guides you through the transfer process.

Transferring images with HP Photosmart Software

If you have installed the HP Photosmart Software (see Install the software on page 8), use this method to transfer images and video clips to your computer. Depending on the HP Photosmart Software version you installed (see About the HP Photosmart Software on page 9), you can also use this method to transfer, stitch, and print panoramas.

Tip You can also perform this task using an optional HP Photosmart dock (see the dock User Guide).

1.If you have selected images for sharing or printing (see Selecting individual images for printing on page 37), verify that the computer is connected to a printer and/

or the Internet.

2.Connect the camera and computer using the USB

cable that came with your camera.

3. Turn on the camera and follow the instructions on the computer screen to transfer the images. For more information, see the Help feature in the HP Photosmart Software.
