Print photos from a memory device
You can insert supported memory cards into the slots located on the front of the
printer. In addition, you can connect a USB storage device (such as a keychain drive
or portable hard drive) to the USB port on the front of the printer. You can also connect
a digital camera in storage mode to the USB port on the front of the printer and print
photos directly from the camera.
For more information about using memory devices, see Insert a memory device.
CAUTION: Attempting to remove a memory device while it is being accessed can
damage files on the card. You can safely remove a card only when the status light
is not blinking. Also, never insert more than one storage device at a time as this
can also damage files on the storage device.
To print selected photos
NOTE: This function is only available if the memory device does not contain
Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) content.
