Print settings (DPOF)

Print reservation allows you to save printing data (the number of prints and the date/
time information) with the pictures stored on the card.
With print reservation, you can print out pictures easily either at home using a
personal DPOF-compatible printer or at a photo store that supports DPOF. DPOF is
a standard format used to record automatic print information from digital cameras.
You can print out pictures automatically, at home or at a photo store, by storing data,
such as which pictures you want to print and the number of prints, on the card.

Pictures with print reservations can be printed using the following procedures.

TIPS

Relation between printing and record mode when shooting
The resolution of a computer/printer is generally based on the number of dots
(pixels) per inch (dpi). Increasing the dpi when printing a picture produces a
finer print. However, as the resolution of the picture is not changed, the size of
the print will be smaller. You can enlarge the size of the print, but the picture
will appear grainy.
If you want to print large, high-quality pictures, set the record mode as high as
possible when taking the pictures.
