The photos I marked for printing in the digital camera do not print

Solution

Some digital cameras let you mark photos for printing in both the

camera's internal memory and on the memory card. If you mark photos in the
internal memory, and then move photos from the camera's internal memory to the
memory card, the marks do not transfer. Mark photos for printing after you
transfer them from the digital camera's internal memory to the memory card.
