O[DPOF PRINT]

DPOF “Digital Print Order Format” is a system that allows the user to select which pictures to print, how many copies of each picture to print and whether or not to print the recording date on the pictures when using a DPOF compatible photo printer or photo printing store. For details, ask at your photo printing store.

When you want to use a photo printing store to print pictures recorded on the built-in memory, copy them to a card (P99) and then set the DPOF setting.
