FILE MANAGEMENT
The file management capabilities of the camera make it
easy to keep track of images. You can protect files against
deletion, and even use its DPOF feature to specify images
for printing.
Folders
Your camera automatically creates a directory of image
storage folders in its built-in Flash memory or on the
memory card.
Memory Folders and Files
An image you record is automatically stored in a folder,
whose name is a serial number. You can have up to 900
folders in memory at the same time. Folder names are
generated as shown below.
Example: Name of the 100th folder.
Each folder can hold files numbered up to 9,999.
Trying to store the 10,000th file in a folder causes the next
serially numbered folder to be created. Folder names are
generated as shown below.
Example: Name of the 26th file

Serial number (4 digits)
•The actual number of files you will be able to store on a
memory card depends on the image quality settings,
capacity of the card, etc.
•For details about the directory structure, see “Memory
Directory Structure”on page 124.

DPOF
The letters “DPOF”stand for “Digital Print
Order Format”, which is a format for
recording on a memory card or other medium
which digital camera images should be
printed and how many copies of the image
should be printed. Then you can print on a
DPOF-compatible printer or at a professional
print service in accordance with the file name
and number of copies settings recorded on
the card.
With this camera, you should always select images by
viewing them on the monitor screen. Do not specify images
by file name without viewing the file contents.

Exif Print
Exif Print is an
internationally supported,
open standard file format
that makes it possible to
capture and display vibrant
digital images with accurate
colors. With Exif 2.2, files
include a wide range of
shooting condition
information that can be
interpreted by an Exif Print
printer to produce better-
looking prints.
IMPORTANT!
•Information about the availability of Exif Print
compatible printer models can be obtained from each
printer manufacturer.
PRINT Image Matching II
Images include PRINT Image Matching
II data (mode setting and other camera
setup information). A printer that
supports PRINT Image Matching II
reads this data and adjusts the printed
image accordingly, so your images
come out just the way you intended
when you recorded them.
*Seiko Epson Corporation holds the
copyright for PRINT Image Matching and
PRINT Image Matching II.

6. Load paper for printing the images into the
printer.

settings for your printer.
•See the user documentation that comes with your
printer for details about configuring its settings.

[왔] to select “Print”, and then press [SET].
•This automatically starts printing of the images you
specified with the DPOF procedure.
•If you want to print the same batch of images again,
press the [USB] button on the USB cradle.
•A message appears on the monitor screen, followed
by the DPOF setting screen (page 87), if there are no
DPOF settings currently configured on the camera to
control the printing operation. If this happens,
configure the required DPOF settings and then
perform step 6 of the above procedure again.
•If you want to change the current DPOF settings,
select “DPOF”on the print menu to display the
DPOF setting screen (page 87).
9. After printing is complete, turn off the camera
and remove it from the USB cradle.
IMPORTANT!
•Contact your printer manufacturer for information
about models that support USB DIRECT-PRINT,
upgrades, etc.
•Never disconnect the USB cable, or perform any
camera or USB cradle operation while printing is in
progress. Doing so causes a printer error.
•To interrupt an ongoing print operation, perform the
required operation on the printer.
