Transfer digital images to your computer

After you take photos with your digital camera, you can print them immediately or save
them directly to your computer. To save them to your computer, you need to remove the
memory card from the camera and insert it in the appropriate memory card slot on the
HP all-in-one.

Note

You can only use one memory card in your HP all-in-one at a time.

1

Insert the memory card into the appropriate slot on your HP all-in-one.
When the memory card is inserted correctly, the status light next to the memory
card slots begins to blink.
