3-2 Error status on the LCD If an error occurs in the printer engine during Memory Card Direct Printing and Digital Camera Direct Printing, an error number is displayed at the Required Sheets line of the LCD. As multiple errors such as warnings, operator calls, and service calls, may simultaneously occur in the printer, priorities for error display have been established.
All the logic boards available as a replacement part contain printer settings for the BJ S530. Therefore, if the logic board was re plased, be sure to set the correct printer settings. Fig1 Functions of the S530D Service mode S530D Press...
5. Direct Printing Differences from S830D Item Differences - Photo numbers are assigned in the order in which each photo was taken by a normal digital camera. - In a folder, a higher priority is placed on a file when the file name, not counting the file Order of image printing extension, consists of 8 characters with the latter 4 being numeric, in compliance with the DCF (Design rule for Camera File system).
When the S530D is connected by USB cable to a host computer with the Memory Card Startup Utility installed, and the printer is powered on via the Power button, the card slot on the S530D is mounted in My Computer as a removable drive.
ZoomBrowser may be different in some cases. 6.3 Data access For mounted card slot of S530D, data access to the memory card is possible by performing the usual file operations through the OS’s standard file control software (such as Explorer and Finder) and general software applications.
6.4 Card slot attribute The card slot attributes can be changed by operating the Memory Card Startup Utility on the host computer. Card Slot Attribute State Read only To protect the data on the memory card, writing to the memory card inserted in the card slot is prohibited.

6.7 Exclusive Processes 6.7.1. Exclusive processes in Memory Card Direct Printing and Digital Camera Direct Printing As it is impossible to simultaneously process Memory Card Direct Printing and Digital Camera Direct Printing, the following actions are taken: When the digital camera is connected via the digital camera connection cable: Memory Card Direct Printing settings and operation are not possible except for the Maintenance mode.
6.7.3. Exclusive processes in host computer memory card access and Memory Card Direct Printing Writing of data from the host computer to the memory card, while reading of image data from the memory card for direct printing is conducted as follows in order to avoid overwriting the image being printed in Memory Card Direct Printing, via the host computer.
6.9 Mode Displays in Operation Panel 6.9.1. No card insertion Nothing is displayed in the LCD when the printer is powered on, and a valid memory card is not inserted, or a digital camera is not connected. Possible key operation under the mode: Power button: Powers off the printer.

The maintenance icon appears in the Required Sheets line of the LCD when the maintenance mode is selected to maintain the S530D and optional CV-100. This mode is selected by pressing the maintenance button, except during Memory Card Direct Printing and Digital Camera Direct Printing.
6.9.9. Error display Error number is displayed in the Required Sheets line of the LCD when errors occur in the S530D. The display clears when the errors are recovered. Note: Details of error displays are described in the following section.
6.11 Card Slot-related Operation and Display 6.11.1. Removing the memory card Users can force the ejection of memory cards inserted in the card slot, by pressing the Eject button next to the slot. However, in order to protect the data on the memory card, remove the card using any of the following timings/methods: - While the Access lamp is not lit, press the Eject button to remove the memory card.

6.13.5. Layout and image size Processing in borderless printing 1) Rotate the image data by 90 degrees (if necessary) to align the long edges of the image with those of the paper (or perforated lines). 2) Enlarge (or reduce) the image data in the same magnification of portrait and landscape so as to align either the long or short edges of the image with those of the paper (or perforated lines), so that blank space in the paper (inside the perforated line) is completely eliminated.

6.13.6. Processing in printing in print area without image trimming 1) Rotate the image data by 90 degrees (if necessary) to align the long edge of the image data with those of the paper (or perforated lines). 2) Enlarge (or reduce) the image data in the same magnification of portrait and landscape so as to align either the long or short edges of the image with those of the print area (blue line), so that no image data is discarded.
6.14 Date print specifications 6.14.1. Date print in Memory Card Direct Printing 1) Settings and data format Printing in DPOF (Index and Standard) mode: When date print is set to ON in the DPOF settings, the date is printed using the character strings in the DPOF settings.
