Note : Only one medium is accessible at a time either from the printer or a PC. When multiple media are detected at power-on, the printer accesses one by one in the predetermined order given in the priority column. When a medium in an enabled slot is removed, the next priority slot becomes enabled if a medium is in the slot. Reinserting the medium in the next priority slot is not required. If no media is detected, the CF slot becomes enabled. Removing/reinserting media in disabled slots does not affect the access priority.
When a target medium does not become accessible because of another medium inserted in a slot that has higher priority than the target one, remove the another medium in order to enable the target slot.
Notes on handling memory card by access method
When accessing media from the printer:
Frame numbers are automatically assigned to image files in an accessible medium. The total number of image files does not change if another medium is inserted into a disabled slot.
When accessing media from a Windows PC:
One removal disk drive is displayed even when multiple media are inserted into the printer slots. A medium in an enabled slot is accessed from the “removal disk drive”.
When accessing media from a Macintosh PC:
A medium in an enabled slot is mounted on the desktop. Another medium inserted in a disabled slot is not mounted.

EPSON Stylus Photo R260/R265/R270, R360/R380/R390 |
Revision C |
The Stylus Photo R360/R380/R390 offers Direct-Print function that allows the user to print directly from a memory card without using a PC. Besides printing still images, printing frames of a movie file is also available. The Memory Card button on the operation panel displays menus for printing both still and movie images.
File System
Files that conforms to DCF Version 1.0 or 2.0 can be used by the standalone print function of this printer. Compatibility of other file systems is not guaranteed. Compatibility of file systems available with the card reader function depends on the host specification.
NOTE: For the detailed specification of DCF, see “Camera File System Standard DCF Version 2.0, JEIDA-CP-3461”
Media Format

DOS FAT format (FAT12/FAT16/FAT32*1) with single partition (basic partition)
CD-R media: ISO9660(Joliet) format
DVD media: ISO9660(Joliet) or ISO9660(Joliet)&UDF bridge format*2
NOTE *1 : FAT32 is permitted for media allowed to be used by corresponding memory card standards.
*2 : UDF-formatted DVDs are not supported.
File Type
File types available for the standalone print are as follows:
JPEG file (*.JPG)
A photo data file that conforms to Exif Version 2.21 (Exif version 1.0/2.0/2.1/2.2/2.21 are supported)
TIFF file (*.TIF)

PRINT Image Framer (P.I.F.) file (*.FD2)
A file that contains layout information that conforms to PRINT Image Framer Rev.3.1. The printer recognizes the file in a medium regardless of the directly in which the file exists. This file is classified into two styles; template style and complete style.
Template style
Defines frame data to be combined with images that can be specified at the time of printing.
Complete style
Defines completed layout data that contains images and frames.
NOTE: This product supports up to P.I.F. Rev.3 level 1.
CHECK |
Files saved in the directory (or its sub directory) listed below are |
POINT |
not supported for printing. |
Hidden or System folder
“RECYCLED” folder
“PREVIEW” folder (stores thumbnails in CASIO DSCs)
“SCENE”: folder (stores data for best-shot function in CASIO DSCs)
“MSSONY”: folder (stores e-mail images, voices, movies, or uncompressed images in SONY DSCs)
“DCIM¥ALBUM¥IMAGE”: folder (stores data for album function in CASIO DSCs)
Valid Image Sizes
Available image sizes for stand-alone print are as follows:
Horizontal: 80 ≤ X ≤ 9200 (pixel)
Vertical: 80 ≤ Y ≤ 9200 (pixel)
Maximum Number of Photo Data Files
The printer can handle up to 999 photo data files in a single memory card. If the number of files stored in a card exceeds the limit, first detected 999 files become valid and others are ignored displaying the total number of files as 999. (1 to 999th photo files are printed when Print All or index print is selected.) Since the file detecting order changes depending on how the files are stored (folder hierarchy or other factors), it is

Revision C |
not guaranteed which files are selected when the number of files is 1000 or more. When photo data files to which a camera has assigned numbers over 999 are specified to be printed, they can be printed unless the total number of files exceeds 999.
File Sort
The printer sorts all the photo data files in a memory card using their full pathnames (such as “\DCIM\100EPSON\EPSN0000.JPG”) and assigns numbers to them. Because the number assignment rule is specific to the printer, the numbers assigned by the printer do not necessarily match the numbers assigned by a camera.
File Sort Rule
The printer sorts photo data files by their full pathnames in ASCII order.
NOTE: The sorting may fail or be completed improperly if multiple same full pathnames exist. (the existence is not allowed under normal MS-DOS environment.)
Date Data Acquisition
The printer acquires the date and time data of each photo data file according to the priority list given below.
1.From a digital camera. Acquires date and time data conforms to digital camera standard format (Exif).
2.From a PC or other external device. Acquires date and time data (timestamp of the file) assigned by the file system compatible with MS-DOS.
3.Fixed date and time (1 January 1980 00:00:00)
Note that the acquired date and time of each photo data file is not necessarily the exact date of shooting the photo. The date and time data can be updated after shooting by digital camera’s calendar setting, post-processing or restoring of the photo data. If the data has been updated, the printer acquires the updated date and time information.
Date Range
The printer can handle the following range of date. If photo data files have date and time information outside the range, the printer cannot sort files correctly.
1 January 1980 00:00:00 to 31 December 2099 23:59:59
Maximum Number of Copies
Up to 99 copies can be set per image unless the total number of copies for each photo print operation exceeds 999.
Image files associated with P.I.F.3 script
When an image file associated with P.I.F.3 script file include a rotation tag, the image is rotated as specified by the tag every time it is printed. If the image is printed with a prestored or imported P.I.F. frame that has not associated with any images, rotation direction of the image may differ from that of an image which has not associated with P.I.F.3 script.
The user can view a movie in a memory card on the printer LCD and select a desired frame of the movie and print the frame. The following two options (1 frame/12 frames) are provided.

Writing Format for CD-R Media
Writing to CD-R media is made in multisession type (Model 1) and ISO-9660 (Joliet)- compliant format.
Files or folders whose name includes an unsupported character code or is too long (file/ folder name must be less than 8 characters, and the extensions must be less than 3 characters), the names are automatically changed as explained below.
File name: EPSONXXX.JPG
Folder name: EPDIRXXX
NOTE 1 : 001-999 numbers are applied to XXX in ascending order.
2: An unsupported character-code used in the extension is replaced with an underbar.
3: During a single backup operation, the number of automatic change of file/folder names is limited to 999 times. When it exceeds, no more files/folders that contain an unsupported character-code cannot be backed up.
4: If a file or folder name that is automatically changed due to an unsupported character code is already exists in the medium, the change is cancelled and the file or folder cannot be backed up.
Writing Format for DVD-R Media
Writing to DVD-R media is made in UDF 1.50 (ISO9660 Bridge) format. The file name length and the path length have the following limitations.
File name length: Max. 255 bytes
Path length: Max. 1023 bytes
NOTE: Characters available for a folder and file name are capital alphanumeric and underbars. Characters other than those are replaced with underbars.
CHECK |
A memory card that has 8-level or more hierarchy of directories |
POINT |
cannot be backed up to both a CD-R and DVD-R. |
|
|
Operation After Backup to CD-R/DVD-R Media
The CD-R/DVD-R is automatically ejected from the external device.
Backup Restrictions
Browsing an external device from a PC cannot be made.
The printer and an external device must be directly connected with a USB cable. Connection via a HUB is not supported.
A connection with a PC must have been disconnected before starting a backup in order to establish exclusive access over the medium to be backed up. There is no need to physically disconnect the PC (disconnect the USB cable).
Partitioned media cannot be used for backup.
Writing backup data stored in a medium back to a memory card or other media cannot be made because it may destroy the data in a DSC.
Since the printer does not have calendar function, created date and time of backup files is the date and time initially assigned or updated by a device other than the printer.

|
|
|
|
path print) to reduce banding problem. Printers that incorporate the |
