Notes on the Print Set [Date] Option

The date and time printed on pictures with DPOF printing
when [Date] in the print set menu is enabled are those
recorded with the picture when it was taken. Date and time
printed using this option are not affected when the camera’s
date and time setting are changed from the setup menu after
pictures are recorded.

Differences Between Print Set and Date Imprint

Date and time can only be printed on pictures using the [Date] option in the print set menu
when pictures are printed from a DPOF-compatible printer (c 121).
Use the [Date imprint] (c 97) option in the setup menu to print the date on pictures from a
printer that does not support DPOF (position of the date is fixed at the bottom right hand cor-
ner of the picture). Once the [Date imprint] option is enabled, the date forms a permanent
part of the image and cannot be deleted from pictures.
When the date option for both [Print set] and [Date imprint] is enabled, only the date from
the [Date imprint] option is printed, even when a DPOF-compatible printer is used.
