Chapter 7: Troubleshooting and Support 113
Using Your Camera without
Installing the HP Image Zone
Software
If you do not, or cannot, install the HP Image Zone software on
your computer for some reason (such as there is not enough
RAM in your computer, or your computer is not running a
supported operating system), you can still use your camera to
take pictures and video clips. However, some of the things you
can do with the camera will be affected:
z
The HP Instant Share feature depends on the HP Image Zone
software, so if the software is not installed on your
computer, you will not be able to use the
HP Instant Share
feature on the camera.
z
The Panorama shooting mode on the camera uses the
ArcSoft Panorama Maker component of the HP Image Zone
software to automatically stitch images together in the
computer. Therefore, if the software is not installed on your
computer, images taken in
Panorama mode will not be
automatically stitched into a panorama when you transfer
the images to your computer. However, you can still use
Panorama mode in the camera to take sequences of pictures
that you want to make into a panoramic image later. You
will simply need to use some other kind of image stitching
software to create the panorama on your computer.
z
Images you have marked for printing using the Print button
on the camera will not automatically print out when the
camera is connected to the computer. However, this feature
will still work in the following scenarios:
• When you connect the camera directly to a printer.
