„ (memory card users)
Your machine is designed to read memory 
cards that have been formatted by a digital

When a digital camera formats a memory 
card it creates a special folder into which it 
copies image data. If you need to modify 
the image data stored on a memory card 
with your PC, we recommend that you do 
not modify the folder structure created by 
the digital camera. When saving new or 
modified image files to the memory card 
we also recommend you use the same 
folder your digital camera uses. If the data 
is not saved to the same folder, the 
machine may not be able to read the file or 
print the image.
