and time stamp on/off information on the memory card with the images. 
After configuring settings, you can use the memory card to print on a home 
printer that supports DPOF or take the memory card to a professional print 
service.
• Whether or not you will be able to use DPOF settings for printing depends on the 
printer you are using.
• Some professional print services may not support DPOF.

includes DPOF settings for the images to be printed and the number of copies. If you 
don’t, the print service may print all the images without regard to your DPOF settings, 
or they may ignore your date stamp setting.

.Date Stamping
You can use one of the following three methods to include the recording date in the 
printout of an image.
.Standards Supported by the Camera
• PictBridge
This is a standard of the Camera and Imaging Products Association 
(CIPA). You can connect the camera directly to a printer that supports
PictBridge, and perform image selection and printing using the 
camera monitor screen and controls.
•Exif Print
Printing on a printer that supports Exif Print (Exif 2.2) uses 
information about shooting conditions recorded with the image to 
enhance printed image quality. Contact your printer manufacturer 
for information about models that support Exif Print, printer upgrades, etc.
Configuring 
camera settingsConfigure DPOF settings (page 84).
You can turn date stamping on and off each time you print. 
You can configure settings so some images include the date 
stamp and some don’t.
Configure the Camera’s Time Stamp setting (page 112).
• The camera’s Time Stamp setting imprints the date into a 
snapshot when you shoot it, so the date is always included 
when you print. It cannot be deleted.
• Do not turn on DPOF date stamping for an image that 
includes a date stamped with the camera’s Time Stamp 
function. Doing so can cause the two stamps to be 
overprinted.
Configuring 
computer settingsYou can use commercially available image management 
software to date stamp images.
Professional print 
serviceRequest date stamping when ordering prints from a 
professional print service.
