4.4.1 Setting the DPOF
DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) allows you to embed printing information on your SD
memory card.
By using DPOF, you can select an image to be printed and then specify how many prints or
which image you would like. Take your SD memory card to a DPOF enabled printer or
through laboratory printing services that accept memory cards. The DPOF/card-compatible
printer will read the embedded information on the memory card and print your images as
specified.
To set DPOF:
1. Press [
] to enter Playback mode. Then press the
MENU
button to enter the [Play]
menu.
2. Select [DPOF] by using the [
] / [
] button, and then press the
OK
button.
3. Select [Single] or [All] with the [
] / [
] button, and then press the
OK
button.
The DPOF sub-menu options:
[Single]: Sets DPOF for each individual image.
[All]: Sets DPOF for all images once.
4. Select [Print Num.] with the [
] / [
] button, and then press the
OK
button.
5. Set the number of prints with the [
] / [
] button, and then press the
OK
button. You
can set up to 9 prints for each image.
6. Select [Date Print] to decide if to print the date of the photograph.
7. Select [Print Enable] > [Execute] with the [
] / [
] button, and then press the
OK
button. This creates a file containing the DPOF information. When the operation is
finished, the screen returns to the playback screen.

4.4.2 Printer mode
Even if you do not have a computer, you can connect the camera directly to a printer that
supports PictBridge to perform image selection and printing using the camera monitor
screen and controls. DPOF support also lets you specify which images you want to print and
how many copies of each should be printed.
