8 Use the photo features
The HP All-in-One is equipped with memory card slots and a front USB port that enable
you to print or edit photos from a memory card or storage device (such as a keychain
drive, portable hard drive, or a digital camera in storage mode) without uploading your
photos to a computer first. Additionally, if the HP All-in-One is network-connected or
connected to a computer with a USB cable, you can also transfer your photos to the
computer to print, edit, or share.
You can print photos by connecting a PictBridge-compatible digital camera directly to the
front USB port. When you print from a digital camera, the printer uses the settings that
you selected on the camera. For more information, see the documentation that came with
the camera.
