print camera-selected photos
Camera-selected photos are photos you marked for printing using your digital camera. When you select photos using your camera, the camera creates a Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) file that identifies which photos have been selected for printing. Your printer can read the DPOF file from the memory card so you do not have to reselect the photos to print. Review the documentation that came with your digital camera to see if it supports camera-selected photos. Your printer supports DPOF file format 1.1. Note: Not all digital cameras allow you to mark your photos for printing. When you print camera-selected photos, the printers control panel settings do not apply; the settings in the DPOF file for photo layout and number of copies override the printers control panel. To print camera-selected photos from a memory card: Use your digital camera to select the photos you want to print. For more information, see the documentation that came with your camera. Insert the memory card into the printers memory card slot. For more information, see insert a memory card on page 11. The printer automatically recognizes the DPOF file on the memory card and displays the message PRINT CAMERA SELECTED PHOTOS? PRESS OK OR CANCEL. Load photo paper in the paper tray. For more information, see load the paper on page 14. Press the OK button to print the camera-selected photos. To ignore the selections made with the digital camera, press the CANCEL button. Note: The printer unmarks camera-selected photos after printing. If you have an HP direct-printing digital camera, you can print camera-selected photos by connecting the camera directly to the printer. If your printer is connected to a computer and the computer is turned on, you can save all the photos and the DPOF file on the memory card to the computer. You can then print the camera-selected photos from your computer. For more information, see the HP Photosmart Printer Help.
