Print Set

Print set is used to create a digital “print order” that lists the photographs to be printed, the number of copies, and the information to be included on each print. This information is stored on the memory card in Digital Print Order Format (DPOF). The card can then be removed from the camera and used to print the selected images printed on any DPOF-compatible device.

Highlight Print set in the playback menu ( 146) and press the multi selector to the right. Press the multi selector up or down to highlight an option, then press to the right to make a selection.

Taking Pictures for Direct Printing

When taking images to be printed without modification, set the Color mode option in the shooting menu to I (sRGB) or III (sRGB) ( 67).

DPOF/PictBridge

Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) is an industry-wide standard that allows pictures to be printed from print orders stored on the memory card. Before printing, check that the printer or print service supports DPOF. Pictures selected using Print set can also be printed on PictBridge printers via direct USB connection ( 226). When a PictBridge printer is connected to the camera using the supplied UC-E4 USB cable, a menu will be displayed in the camera monitor; select DPOF print to print the current print order. Note that the date and shooting information will not be printed.
