Printing at a shop
You can take a “Memory Stick Duo” containing images shot with the camera to a photo printing service shop. As long as the shop supports photo printing services conforming to the DPOF, you can make a
(Print order) mark on images in advance so that you do not need to reselect them when you print them out at the shop.
• You cannot print images stored in the internal memory at a print shop directly from the camera. Copy the images to a “Memory Stick
Duo”, then take the “Memory Stick Duo” to the print shop.
What is DPOF?
DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) is a function allowing you to make a
(Print order) mark on images of “Memory
Stick Duo” that you want to print out later.
• You can also print the images with the
(Print order) mark using a printer that conforms to the DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) standard or using a PictBridge compliant printer.
• You cannot mark movies.
• You can add a (Print order) mark to a maximum 999 images.
When taking a “Memory Stick Duo” to a shop
• Consult your photo printing service shop as to what types of “Memory Stick Duo” they handle.
• If a “Memory Stick Duo” is not handled by your photo printing service shop, copy the images you want to print out to another medium such as a CD-R and take it to the shop.
• Be sure to take the Memory Stick Duo Adaptor with it.
• Before you take image data to a shop, always copy (back up) your data to a disk.
• You cannot set the number of prints.
• When you want to superimpose dates on images, consult your photo printing service shop.
