DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) allows for tagging of images

on memory cards for printing. DPOF allows digital camera users
to define what images are to be printed on compatible print
devices. Basically, it is a set of text files in a special directory in
the digital camera’s storage files. These files define what
images (if any) are to be prin te d , how many copie s of ea c h
image are to be printed, and if any information (such as time
and date) is to be overlaid on the image. DPOF is implemented
through a menu option in the digital camera's playback mode.

● There are three basic op tions when printing images with
DPOF: printing individual images, printing all images and

printing with or without the im age recorded date.

※ The DPOF function works only with a memory card.
