Printing Pictures
To print pictures:
• select pictures for printing using Print set (
58) and take the memory
card to a digital print service center or insert the card into a personal photo
printer equipped with a card slot. To print the pictures in internal memory,
copy them to a memory card before selecting pictures using Print set.
Some print services may be able to print pictures directly from the camera.
• use the USB cable to connect the camera to a printer that supports Pict-
Bridge and print pictures directly from the camera ( 61)
• transfer the pictures using PictureProject and print them from a computer
(see the PictureProject Reference Manual, on CD)
To print the time and date of recording on pictures:
• take pictures using the Date imprint option in the setup menu, which im-
prints the date or date and time of recording directly on pictures as they are
taken (
95)
• if the photo printer or print service supports Digital Print Order Format
(DPOF), use the Date option in the Print set menu ( 58)
• transfer the pictures using PictureProject and print them using the “Print
Metadata” option (see the PictureProject Reference Manual, on CD)
“ Print Set” and Digital Print Order Format ( DPOF)
The Print set option in the playback menu is used to create a digital “print order” list-
ing the pictures to be printed, the number of prints, and the information to be included
on each print. This print order is stored on the camera memory card in Digital Print
Order Format (DPOF). Once a print order has been created, the memory card can be
inserted in a DPOF-compatible device and the pictures printed directly from the card.
Before using this option, check that the printer or print service supports DPOF. Note
that if the Print set option has not been used to create a print order, one copy of all the
pictures on the memory card will be printed.
