Using HP Photosmart Touch
With HP Photosmart Touch you can upload, view,
edit, and print your digital memories with the
touch of a finger. The easy-to-use touch display
lets you view and print photos as easily as using a
photo kiosk.
You can use the accessible card readers on the
front of the HP TouchSmart PC to easily upload
photos from your digital camera. You can also
add an HP photo printer (A510 Series and
A610 Series) where your photos print out right
under the display.

device appear in the Pictures folder.
Windows Vista detects your external device and displays a message asking if you want to view your
images.
You can copy digital picture files from the memory cards used by digital cameras and other digital imaging
devices by using the memory card reader (select models only).
NOTE: When transferring pictures from a digital photo camera to the HP TouchSmart PC in HP Photosmart
Touch, set the camera’s USB setting to disk drive instead of digital camera.
