About DPOF
DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) is a standard to record the print orders sent to the Micro SD
card. You can dedignate the photos to be printed and the number of their copies. After you set
DPOF to the photos, you just need to insert the Micro SD card into a DPOF compatible printer
to output the photos as ordered. The printer compatible with your camera can follow the DPOF
orders to print the photos.
•The DPOF printing requires a Micro SD card with preset DPOF information. It will fail if you
simply select the photos from the Micro SD card and try to print them.
•Some DPOF compatible and digital photo developing shops may fail to print the photos
based on the specific settings. If this is the case with your printer, please refer to the User
Manual attached to it. In another case, please check the DPOF compatibility with the
digital photo developing shop.
•If the DPOF information of the Micro SD card has been set by another device, please do
not insert this card into your DVR to reset the DPOF information, or the DPOF information
may be invalid or covered. Sometimes, special photo types make it impossible to set the
DPOF information.
