This section describes the basic procedure for loading paper into your HP PSC. There are specific considerations for loading certain types of paper, transparency film, postcards, and envelopes. After you review this procedure, see load other types of paper in the input tray on page 17, load 4 by 6 inch (10 by 15 cm) photo paper on page 15, load envelopes on page 14, and load postcards or Hagaki cards on page 16. For best results, adjust the paper settings each time you change paper types or paper sizes. For more information, see set the paper type on page 18. Tip: Help prevent rips, wrinkles, curled or bent edges by storing all media flat in a resealable bag. Extreme changes in temperature and humidity might result in curled media that does not work well in the HP PSC if the media is not stored properly.

recommended papers
If you want the best print quality, we recommend HP Papers. Using paper that is too thin, paper that has a slick texture, or paper that stretches easily can cause paper jams. Using paper that has a heavy texture or does not accept ink can cause images to smear, bleed, or not be filled in completely.

what is a memory card?
If your digital camera uses a memory card to store photos, you can insert the memory card in your HP PSC to print or save your photos. memory card You can print a proof sheet, which might be several pages long and shows thumbnail views of photos stored on the memory card, and print photos from the memory card, even if your HP PSC is not connected to a computer. Your HP PSC can read CompactFlash (I, II), Memory Sticks, MultiMediaCard (MMC), Secure Digital, SmartMedia, and xD memory cards. Your HP PSC features four slots for memory cards, shown in the illustration below with the memory cards that correspond to each slot.

chapter 3
The slots are configured as follows: · · · · Top left slot: CompactFlash (I, II) Top right slot: Secure Digital, MultiMediaCard (MMC) Bottom left slot: SmartMedia, xD (fits in top right of the main slot) Bottom right slot: Memory Stick, Magic Gate Memory Stick, Memory Stick Duo (with user-supplied adapter), Memory Stick Pro Note: By default, Windows XP will format a memory card of 8 MB or less and 64 MB or more with the FAT32 format. Digital cameras and other devices use the FAT (FAT16 or FAT12) format and cannot operate with a FAT32 formatted card. Either format your card in your camera or select FAT format to format your card in a Windows XP PC.
insert a memory card and save the files to your computer
After you take photos with your digital camera, you can print them immediately or save them directly to your computer. Note: You can only use one memory card in your HP PSC at a time. 1 Insert the memory card into the appropriate slot on your HP PSC. When the memory card is inserted correctly, the Photo button on the front panel remains on. If you insert a memory card backwards, the light next to the card slot blinks amber and the front panel might display an error message such as "Card is in backwards" or "Card is not fully inserted". Reading camera memory card... appears on the front panel display. The light next to the card slots blinks green when the card is being accessed. When the HP PSC finishes reading the card, both the Photo button and access light stop blinking and remain illuminated. Another message appears showing the number of files found on the memory card. Warning! You can safely remove the card only when the light next to the slots remains on. If you try to remove a card when the light blinks, you can damage files on the card or even make the card unusable. 4 If the card contains new files that have never been transferred to your computer, a prompt on the display directs you to a dialog box on your computer where you can continue the transfer of files from the card to the computer, or cancel the transfer. Choose the option to continue with the transfer. This saves all the new photos from the memory card to your computer using the HP PSC software. For Windows: by default, files are saved in month and year folders depending on when the photos were taken. The folders are created under the C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Pictures folder in Windows XP and Windows 2000. For Macintosh: by default, files are saved to the computer at the location Hard Drive:Documents:HP All-in-One Data:Photos folder (OS 9) or Hard Drive:Users:User Name:Pictures:HP Photos folder (OS X).

By default, files are copied to your computer; they are not deleted from the card. Is your hard disk full? If your computer is equipped with an internal or external CD writer, you can organize large collections of digital photos on CDs by using the Memories Disc feature available through the HP Photo & Imaging Director. Just start the HP Director and click HP Gallery. Click the Make CD tab to begin collecting, organizing, and cataloging your images on CDs. On a Macintosh see the hp gallery section in the hp photo and imaging help book for information on the Memories Disc.
print photos by using a proof sheet
A proof sheet is a simple and convenient way to order and make prints directly from a memory card without the need for a computer. A proof sheet, which might be several pages long, shows thumbnail views of photos stored on the memory card. The file name, index number, and date appear under each thumbnail. This section covers the following topics: · · · print a proof sheet on page 23 complete the proof sheet on page 24 print photos by scanning a proof sheet on page 25 memory card
Do you want to do more than just print your photos? You can enhance and edit digital photos before printing them by using the HP Image Editor available through the HP Director. Just start the HP Director and click HP Gallery. Select the photo you want to edit, and click Image Editor in the top pane. Add text or special effects to the photo, improve a poor quality photo, or get rid of red eye. Macintosh users can simply double-click an image in HP Gallery to open it for editing in an Image Window. Tip: You can improve the quality of the photos you print with your HP PSC by purchasing a photo print cartridge. Remove the black print cartridge and insert the photo print cartridge in its place. With the tri-color print cartridge and photo print cartridge installed, you have a six-ink system, which provides better quality photos. When you want to print regular text documents, swap the black print cartridge back in.

increase copy speed or quality
The HP PSC provides three options that affect copy speed and quality. · · Normal delivers high-quality output and is the recommended setting for most of your copying. Normal copies faster than Best. Best produces the highest quality for all paper and eliminates the banding (striping) effect that sometimes occurs in solid areas. Best copies more slowly than the other quality settings. Fast copies faster than the Normal setting. The text is of comparable quality to the Normal setting, but the graphics might be of lower quality. Using Fast cuts down on the frequency of replacing your print cartridges, because it uses less ink. Load your original face down on the right front corner of the glass. Press Copy, if it is not already lit. Press Options until Copy Quality appears in the top line of the display. The following options are available in the Copy Quality menu. Copy Menu Number of Copies Borderless Reduce/Enlarge Copy Quality Paper Type Lighter/Darker Enhancements Paper Size Color Intensity Set New Defaults
