FILE MANAGEMENT
The file management capabilities of the camera make it
easy to keep track of images. You can protect files against
deletion, and even use its DPOF feature to specify images
for printing.
Folders
Your camera automatically creates a directory of image
storage folders in its built-in Flash memory or on the
memory card.
Memory Folders and Files
An image you record is automatically stored in a folder,
whose name is a serial number. You can have up to 900
folders in memory at the same time. Folder names are
generated as shown below.
Example: Name of the 100th folder.
Each folder can hold files numbered up to 9,999.
Trying to store the 10,000th file in a folder causes the next
serially numbered folder to be created. Folder names are
generated as shown below.
Example: Name of the 26th file

•The actual number of files you will be able to store on a

DPOF
The letters “DPOF”stand for “Digital Print
Order Format”, which is a format for
recording on a memory card or other medium
which digital camera images should be
printed and how many copies of the image
should be printed. Then you can print on a
DPOF-compatible printer or at a professional
print service in accordance with the file name
and number of copies settings recorded on
the card.
With this camera, you should always select images by
viewing them on the monitor screen. Do not specify images
by file name without viewing the file contents.

Exif Print
Exif Print is an
internationally supported,
open standard file format
that makes it possible to
capture and display vibrant
digital images with accurate
colors. With Exif 2.2, files
include a wide range of
shooting condition
information that can be
interpreted by an Exif Print
printer to produce better-
looking prints.
IMPORTANT!
•Information about the availability of Exif Print
compatible printer models can be obtained from each
printer manufacturer.
PRINT Image Matching II
Images include PRINT Image Matching
II data (mode setting and other camera
setup information). A printer that
supports PRINT Image Matching II
reads this data and adjusts the printed
image accordingly, so your images
come out just the way you intended
when you recorded them.
*Seiko Epson Corporation holds the
copyright for PRINT Image Matching and
PRINT Image Matching II.

•A message appears on the monitor screen, followed
by the DPOF setting screen (page 102), if there are
no DPOF settings currently configured on the
camera to control the printing operation. If this
happens, configure the required DPOF settings and
then perform step 6 of the above procedure again.
•If you want to change the current DPOF settings,
select “DPOF”on the print menu to display the
DPOF setting screen (page 102).
8.
After printing is complete, turn off the camera
and remove it from the USB cradle.
IMPORTANT!
•See the documentation that comes with your printer
for information about print quality and paper settings.
•Contact your printer manufacturer for information
about models that support USB DIRECT-PRINT,
upgrades, etc.
•Never disconnect the USB cable, or perform any
camera or USB cradle operation while printing is in
progress. Doing so causes a printer error.
•To interrupt an ongoing print operation, perform the
required operation on the printer.
•The camera’s monitor screen will go blank after
printing starts. A blank monitor screen does not
necessarily mean that printing is complete. Check
the status of your printer to find out if printing is
complete.

Using the FAVORITE Folder
You can copy scenery shots, photos of your family, or other
special images from a file storage folder (page 142) to the
FAVORITE folder in built-in memory (page 142). Images in
the FAVORITE folder are not displayed during normal
playback, so it helps to keep your personal image private
as you carry them around. FAVORITE folder images are
not deleted when you change memory cards, so you can
always keep them on hand.

In the PLAY mode, press [MENU].
2.
Select the “PLAY”tab,
select “Favorites”, and
then press [].
3.

memory or on the loaded
memory card.

NOTES
•Copying an image file with the above procedure
creates a 320 x 240-pixel QVGA-size image in the
FAVORITE folder.
•A file copied into the FAVORITE folder is
automatically assigned a file name that is a serial
number. Though the serial number starts from 0001
and can go as high as 9999, the actual upper end of
the range depends on built-in memory capacity.
Remember that the maximum number of images that
can be stored in built-in memory depends on the size
of each image and other factors.

In the PLAY mode, press [MENU].
2.
Select the “PLAY”tab, select “Favorites”, and
