•DPOF print setting is a convenient function when printing pictures with a printer that supports PictBridge (P113). The date printing setting on the printer may take priority over the date printing setting on the camera. Check the date printing setting on the printer also. (P113)

•It is necessary to delete all previous DPOF print information made on other equipment when setting DPOF print on the camera.

•If the file is not based on the DCF standard, the DPOF print setting cannot be set.
