Print from mobile devices
The printer supports printing from a variety of mobile devices and memory cards, such
as:
• Cameras
• Mobile phones
• PDAs
This section covers the following topics:
•
Print digital photographs
•
Print from mobile phones
•
Print from Pocket PC devices
•
Print from Palm OS devices
Print digital photographs
You can print photographs directly from a  digital camera or directly from a memory
card, or you can transfer the photos from  the card or camera to your computer and
print them from a software application, such as HP Photo Printing Software. Also, you
can print photos directly from a PictBridge-compatible camera.
If your digital camera uses an SD or MMC  card, you can insert the card into the printer
to print your photos. Your camera must  support Digital Print Order Format (DPOF)
version 1 or 1.1 in order to print directly  from the card to the printer. DPOF files also
automatically print directly from a USB Flash drive that is connected to the USB port of
the printer. For more information, see 
Print from memory cards and USB Flash drives .

To print with six-ink color
Your printer can print with  six-ink color to enhance the quality of printed photographs.
Print high-quality grayscale photographs by using a black print cartridge and a tri-color
print cartridge, or by using a gray photo  print cartridge and a tri-color print cartridge. To
perform six-ink color printing, a photo and a tricolor print cartridge must be installed
together.
NOTE: You can print high-quality black-and-white photographs using a gray
photo print cartridge, combined with the tri-color print cartridge.
Guidelines for printing photographs
• For the best results when printing photographs and images, choose Best mode and select an HP photo paper in the printer driver. Best mode uses HPs unique
PhotoREt IV color-layering technology and ColorSmart III color optimization
technology to create realistic photo images, vivid color output, and extremely sharp
text. With PhotoREt IV, a greater range of colors, lighter tones, and smoother
gradations between tones can be achieved, ensuring the best photo and image
print quality.
Alternatively, select Maximum dpi, which provides up to 4800 x 1200 optimized
dpi* for optimum print quality.
*Up to 4800 x 1200 optimized dpi for color printing and 1200 input dpi. This setting
might temporarily use a large amount of hard  disk space (400 MB or more) and will
print more slowly. Photo cartridge, if present, further enhances the print quality.
• Remove each sheet of paper as it prints and set it aside to dry.
• If the printed colors visibly shift towards yello w, cyan or magenta, or there is a
tinge of color in the gray shades, you need to calibrate the color. For more
information, see 
Calibrate color .
• If you install photo print cartridges, align  the print cartridges for best possible print
quality. You do not need to align the print cartridges every time you install a photo
print cartridge, only when necessary. For more information, see 
Align the print
cartridges .
• To store a print cartridge, see 
Travel tips.
• Always hold photo paper by the edges. Fingerprints on photo paper reduce print quality.
• Photo paper should be flat before printing. If the corners of the photo paper curl more than 10 mm (3/8 inch), flatten the paper by putting it in a resealable plastic
bag, and roll them into a tube. Roll the sheets so the curve of the tube is in the
opposite direction of the original curl of the paper. Roll the tube no smaller than a
1.5 inch (4 cm) in diameter.

To transfer photos to your computer
NOTE: The printer driver lets your computer  read memory cards inserted into the
printer as physical disk drives when you  are connected with a USB cable. You can
then access your photo files and print  them with the software of your choice.
1.Insert the memory card into the correct card slot on the printer. Make sure the side
of the card with the connecting pins or  holes is placed into the printer first.
2. Press 
 (Cancel  button) to cancel direct printing from the card. If your computer is
connected to the printer with a USB cable, the card then appears as a drive in
Windows Explorer or on the Mac OS desktop. You can then transfer the photo files
to another drive on the computer or open and print your photographs with the
software application of your choice.

Print from memory cards and USB Flash drives
If your digital camera uses a SD card or  MMC card, you can insert the card into the
device to print your photos. Your camera  must support Digital Print Order Format
(DPOF) version 1 or 1.1 in order to print  directly from the card to the device. See your
digital camera documentation to see if it  supports DPOF files and for additional
instructions on printing photos.
DPOF files are files created by digital cameras. They are stored on the camera’s
memory card and contain information such as which images are selected to print and
how many of each image are to be printed or saved. The printer can read a DPOF file
from the memory card so you do not have  to use the printer software to reselect the
images to print or save.
DPOF files also automatically print directly from a USB Flash drive that is connected to
the USB port of the device.
Use memory devices 35
 
						

							You can also transfer photos from a memory card or a USB Flash drive onto your
computer’s hard disk and print them from  a software application such as HP Photo
Printing Software.
For information on loading photo paper, see 
Load media .
To print from a memory card
1. Select the images you want to print by creating a DPOF file while the memory card
is still in your digital camera. The settings you can specify (such as number of
copies) are specific to your camera.  See your digital camera’s documentation for
more information.
2. Turn on the printer.
3. Load the appropriate media. For more information, see 
Load media .
4. Configure your desired print settings:
• Windows: Open the Toolbox. Click the  Printer Services tab, and then click
Print Settings . In the dialog box, specify paper type, size, and print quality.
For more information on the Windows Toolbox, see 
Toolbox (Windows) .
• Mac OS: Open the HP Printer Utility. Click  Direct Print Settings. In the dialog
box, specify paper type, size, and print quality. For more information on the HP
Printer Utility, see 
HP Printer Utility (Mac OS) .
NOTE: If you do not have the Toolbox or HP Printer Utility installed, print
a configuration page to check printer media settings for direct printing. This
information will verify whether you are loading the correct media size and
type before printing. For more information, see 
Understand the device
information pages .
5.Insert the card containing the DPOF file into  the correct card slot on the printer.
Make sure the side of the card with the  connecting pins or holes is placed into the
printer first.
CAUTION: If you do not insert the edge  with card connector into the printer
first, you can damage the card, the printer, or both.
