Congratulations on your purchase of this HP Photosmart
digital camera! This camera has many features to enhance
your picture-taking experience, including 7 shooting modes,
HP Instant Share, direct printing capability, manual and
automatic controls, on-camera Help, and an optional
camera dock.
With HP Instant Share, you can easily select images in your
camera to be automatically sent to your favorite destinations
(such as e-mail addresses and online albums) the next time you
connect the camera to your computer. Your friends and family
can easily receive and view your pictures in e-mail without
being burdened by large file attachments. And with the direct
printing capability, you can easily select images in your
camera to be automatically printed the next time you connect
the camera to your computer or directly to any HP Photosmart
printer or PictBridge-compatible printer without ever connecting
to your computer.
To further enhance your experience,
you can purchase an HP Photosmart
M-series dock. The camera dock
allows you to easily transfer images to
a computer, send images to a printer
or television, and recharge Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH)
batteries in your camera. The dock also provides a convenient
home for your camera.
