Printing Without a Computer

This section describes how to print directly from a memory card, USB storage device, or PictBridge-

enabled or other compatible camera.

Printing Tips

• Before you print, make sure the power is connected, and the photo cartridge and photo paper 

are loaded. For help, see your 

Setting Up Your Printer 

poster.

• Printing starts when you press 

Print

. The photo paper cycles 4 times during the printing 

process. The first 3 passes apply layers of yellow, magenta, and cyan color. The fourth pass 

applies the Dell Clear Life Coating that protects and preserves the photo.

NOTE: 

If you remove the card or disconnect the camera during printing, then printing will stop when the 

current photo is printed.

• For advanced print options (color and auto brightness, layouts, index prints, etc.), press the 

Menu

 button. For help, see page  17.

NOTICE: 

Wait until a print is finished before removing it from the paper tray. Failure to do so can cause 

paper misfeeds or jams and can damage the printer.

NOTICE: 

Do not load more than 20 sheets into the paper tray.

Printing From a Memory Card

You can print directly from a CF (CompactFlash), SD (Secure Digital), MS (Memory Stick), 

MMC (MultiMedia Card), or SM (Smart Media), or a USB memory key.

NOTE: 

Your printer reads only one memory source at a time. Printing is disabled if multiple sources 

(cards or camera) are loaded or connected.
