How to make print reservations
Print reservations allow you to save printing data (the number of prints and the date and 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. Only the images stored on the card can be reserved to print. Insert a card with recorded pictures into the camera before making print reservations. Pictures with print reservations can be printed using the following procedures:
Printing using a DPOF-compatible photo store.
You can print pictures using the print reservation data.
d4349_33_e_0000_7.book Page 33 Thursday, June 28, 2007 4:47 PM
Printing using a DPOF-compatible printer.
Printing is possible directly from a card containing print reservation data, without using a computer. For more details, refer to the printers instruction manual. A PC card adapter may also be necessary.
DPOF reservations set by another device cannot be changed by this camera. Make changes using the original device. If a card contains DPOF reservations set by another device, entering reservations using this camera may overwrite the previous reservations. You can make DPOF print reservations for up to 999 images per card. Not all functions may be available on all printers or at all photo stores.

To use print services without using DPOF
Pictures stored in the internal memory cannot be printed at a photo store. The pictures need to be copied to a card beforehand. g BACKUP Copying pictures in the internal memory to the card (P. 26)
