DPOF: Digital Print
Order Format
With DPOF (Digital Print Order Format), you can use 
the camera to specify which images in the CF card are 
to be printed and the quantity. This feature is very 
convenient when you make prints with a DPOF-
compatible printer or photo lab.
About DPOF
DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) is a standard for recording 
print ordering instructions to the CF card. It is for images taken 
with a digital camera, and you can specify which photos and 
the quantity to print. With a DPOF-compatible digital camera, 
you can do the following:
 
By inserting a CF card into a DPOF-compatible 
printer, you can make prints as specified.
 
Printers capable of direct printing from 
the camera can print the images as 
specified by DPOF.
 
When ordering prints from a photo 
lab, you do not need to fill in any 
order form to specify the image 
selections, quantity, etc.
