Erasing an image using the storage function is only possible on these disks: DVD-RW/DVD+RW/CD-RW. The unit is only
compatible with “ERASE,” so even if you select “ALL ERASE,” only the first image will be erased.
If you execute “All ERASE,” the next image may take a long time to display, which may cause malfunction.

When you dock a Dock&Done-compatible digital camera on the cradle that is docked to the unit, you can store
image files onto the disk in the unit automatically. When a printer is connected to the unit, you can print image
files as specified in the print order information with a single action.
Tips
• The unit automatically stores only the new image files taken with the digital camera.
• You can also copy all the image files in the digital camera onto the disk in the unit by simple operations via the digital
camera.
• Image files moved or renamed using a PC cannot be restored back to the digital camera connected to the unit.
• Once stored from a Dock&Done-compatible digital camera, the image files cannot be stored again even if the camera is
connected to another Dock&Done-compatible storage unit.
• The IR-300 is equipped with built-in memory. If a memory card is inserted in the IR-300, the image files on the memory
card are stored. If you want to store the data in built-in memory, remove the memory card.
