E-MAILING A PICTURE
Using the OLYMPUS Master software (included), you can share your pictures with
others by using the built-in e-mail feature.
After installing OLYMPUS Master, open the program and click the “ Browse
Images” icon. From the “Browse” window, select the picture(s) you want to send
and click the “
E-mail” tool button.
At this time, you can resize your pictures making them more manageable to
e-mail. This helps you to stay within the e-mail capacity limitations set by your
e-mail provider.
When finished, click the “ Launch Mailer” button at the bottom of the
window. Your default e-mail program will open and the selected picture(s) will
automatically be attached to a new message.
PRINTING A PICTURE
Using the OLYMPUS Master software (included), you can make prints of your
pictures using your own photo printer.
After installing OLYMPUS Master, open the program and click the “Print Images”
icon on the main menu. You can create many different types of prints such as an
index print, photos, albums, or calendars. Simply select the image(s) and add
them to one of the many layouts within OLYMPUS Master. For detailed
instructions, please refer to the “Help” menu in the software.
You can also order prints online using the “Print Online” feature in OLYMPUS
Master software.
Alternatively, you can print your pictures by connecting your PictBridge*
compatible camera directly to a PictBridge compatible printer, such as the
Olympus P-10 Digital Photo Printer. This permits fast, easy printing without using
a computer.
* For detailed instructions on using PictBridge, please refer to your camera’s
Advanced Manual included in digital format on the CD-ROM.
