picture has been altered. Because IAS doesn’t change the
file format, it has no effect on your ability to store and
display pictures, or to use them in other applications.
Important:
Your software license agreement permits you to
upload the IAS software to only one EPSON digital
camera per software copy or license purchased.

is uploaded to your camera.
You can use this procedure both to upload IAS to your

an AC adapter or make sure your camera has a fully
charged set of batteries.
