Setting the Printing Service (DPOF)

DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) is the format for storing print order data on still pictures captured with a digital camera. Once the print order data has been stored, the pictures can be printed according to the DPOF settings by using a DPOF-compatible printer or at a photo processing lab.

• The DPOF settings can be applied only to still pictures. Movies and sound files cannot be processed with the DPOF settings.

If the picture already has the date and/or time imprinted on it (p.106), do not set [Date] to O (On) in DPOF setting. If you select O, the imprinted date and/or time may overlap.
