The HP Photosmart 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 Photosmart 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.
The HP Photosmart supports the memory cards described below. Each type of memory
card can only be inserted in the appropriate slot for that card, and only one card may be
inserted at a time.
CAUTION: Do not insert more than one memory card at a time. If more than one
memory card is inserted, unrecoverable data loss might occur.
