Setting DPOF (Direct Print of File)

DPOF is a special feature built into your camera that allows you to assign information to
your images for use by digital printing services, desktop printers that accept memory cards
or devices that allow direct to print from your camera. By assigning DPOF information to
an image, you may designate the quantity of images you wish to have printed or have an
index of selected images printed directly from the memory card or image file.
When submitting recorded images to digital printing services or other applications, set
the number of copies of the images to print and that of copies of the index. This setting
is possible only when you select the RICOH folder.

Setting a Printing Service

Be sure to leave a free space of memory for one or two images in the SmartMedia
memory card for which the printing service is set.
Once a printing service is set, never program record, erase or any other settings. If
any setting is programmed, reprogram it.
