Answer

You can process, edit, and print RAW images with the Digital Photo Professional software that came with your camera.* You can also add insert text or the date into images and print them in ImageBrowser EX, ZoomBrowser EX (Windows) or ImageBrowser (Macintosh).
*If the Digital Photo Professional software was not included with your camera, please download it from the Canon homepage.

When editing a RAW image that you have shot, you can do two things depending on the content: use the camera or use software after downloading the image to a computer.
See the table below for the main operations for editing RAW images.
