Print Settings (DPOF Print Settings)

You can select images on a memory card for printing and specify the number of print copies in advance using the camera. The settings used on the camera comply with the Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) standards. This is extremely convenient for printing on a direct print compatible printer, or for sending the images to a photo developing service that supports DPOF.

  • The mark appears over images that have had print marks set by another DPOF-compliant camera. These settings will be overwritten by any print marks set by your camera.
  • The output of some digital printers or photo lab services may not reflect the specified print settings.
  • Print settings cannot be set for movie images.
