FAQ ID: 8201901100

Release date: 05 August 2013

Solution

You can add camera shooting dates when you print.


IMPORTANT
  • To select items that are displayed on the printer's [LCD monitor], press the Left, Right, Up, or Down buttons. To confirm the selected items, press the <OK> button.



REFERENCE
  • Before printing images from a memory card or a USB memory, check to make sure that the printer is not connected to a camera or a computer.
  • For memory cards that require an adapter, always insert the card into the adapter before inserting the adapter into the card slot. If you mistakenly insert the memory card into the card slot without an adapter, you may not be able to remove the card from the printer.
  • For instructions, refer to the memory card or adapter user manual.
  • Use a memory card formatted with the device you shot the photos with. Images on cards formatted with a computer may not be recognized.
  • Images may not be displayed or printed correctly depending on their size or if they have been edited on a computer.
  • When printing images that were shot with mobile phones, there are cases where the images are not displayed or printed correctly depending on the image size that was set during shooting.
  • JPEG images conforming to the Exif standard can be printed with SELPHY.

In this section, an SD memory card is used as an example to explain the operations. You can print images by performing the same operations with a memory card other than an SD memory card or USB memory.
