Selecting Photos for Printing
Before selecting the photos you want to print, make sure you
have inserted your memory card or connected your camera or
external device to the printer. See page 6.
If you have the EPSON Stylus Photo R300 printer, start by
printing an index, so you can select your photos by number.
If you have the EPSON Stylus Photo R300M printer, you
can use the preview monitor to easily select your photos.
Once you know which photos are available for printing, you
can select a single photo, a set of photos, a range of photos
or all the photos.
If you’ve used your camera’s
PictBridge or DPOF (Digital
Print Order Format) feature to select the photos you want
to print, you won’t have to print an index. When you insert
the camera’s memory card,
PictBridge or DPOF appears
under the Select Photo menu and your photos are
automatically selected. (If you don’t want to use PictBridge
or DPOF, you can choose your photos manually.)
Printing an Index
An index print shows small, numbered images of all the
photos on your memory card—and includes the date each
picture was taken. This enables you to select the photos you
want to print. If you have the EPSON Stylus Photo R300M
printer with the preview monitor, you may not need to print
an index.
1. Load your paper in the printer.
2. Highlight
Select Photo, then press OK.
3. In the Select Photo menu, use the and buttons to
highlight
Index, then press OK to select it.
4. Press the and buttons to highlight Paper Type,
then press
OK to enter the Paper Type menu.
5. Highlight the type of paper you’ve loaded, then press
OK.
(If you’re not sure about the paper type, see the table on
page 3.)
It’s important to select the correct Paper Type setting for
the paper you’re using, or the print quality may not be what
you expect.
6. Enter the Paper Size menu, then select the size of paper
you’ve loaded.
7. Press the
Print button. Your index starts printing.
If you would prefer to print an index print with larger
images, choose All under the Select Photo menu, then
choose a different layout setting.
Selecting One Photo
You can select a photo, then print one or more
copies of it on a page using a variety of layouts.
With the Copies option, you can print up to
100 copies of your selected layout.
If your printer doesn’t have the preview
monitor, first print an index to identify the photos on the
memory card (as described on page 8).
1. Highlight
Select Photo, then press OK.
2. In the Select Photo menu, use the and buttons to
highlight the number of the photo you want to print, then
press
OK to select it.
3. If you want to print more than one copy of this
photo, highlight
Copies and press OK, then use the
and buttons to select the desired number of copies
and press
OK.
4. Continue with “Printing the Selected Photos” on page 8 to
finish laying out your photos and setting up your print job.
Selecting a Set of Photos
You can select two or more photos, then print
them as a group using a variety of layouts. If
you’ve selected more photos than can fit on a
page, the printer automatically prints
additional pages, using the same layout.
If you don’t have the optional preview monitor, first print an
index to identify the photos on the memory card.
1. Highlight
Select Photo, then press OK.
If you want to print all your photos, select All. To print a
range of photos, see page 8.
2. Use the button to highlight Individual, then press OK.
If you have the preview monitor, it displays the first photo
on your card.
3. Use the and buttons to select the photo you want to
print, then press
OK.
4. If you want to print more than one copy of this photo, use
the and buttons to select the desired number of
copies, then press
OK.
