Improving Print Quality - Dell V305 User Manual

Insert the memory card until it stops.
The printer will not read the contents of the memory card if it is not properly inserted into the memory
card slot.
When printing images from a memory card, make sure the file format of the
images is supported by the printer.
Only images in JPEG and a limited set of TIFF formats can be printed directly from the memory card.
Only TIFF formats created directly from digital still cameras and not modified by any application are
supported. If you want to print photos stored on the memory card in a different file format, the photos
must be transferred to your computer before printing.
Make sure the printer is not connected to a PictBridge-enabled camera.
