Chapter 5: Sharing Images 39 Transferring Images to Your Computer
The one exception is Windows NT 4.0, because it does not support the USB interface. A Windows
NT 4.0 computer must have either an HP P1000/1100 or similar printer, or a memory card reader
connected to its serial or parallel interface. You can then transfer images from the camera’s memory
card to the computer via either the memory card slot in the HP printer, or the memory card reader.
The following three subsections explain how to transfer images to a computer depending on the PC
Connect Mode setting on the camera and/or the operating system that is running on the computer:
To use the Digita Device setting to transfer images from your camera to a Windows Me, 98, or
2000 computer, see the first subsection below.
To use the USB Disk Drive setting to transfer images from your camera to either a Macintosh®
computer running Mac OS 8.6 or better, or a Windows Me, 98, or 2000 computer, see the
subsection on page 41.
To transfer images from the memory card to a Windows NT 4.0 computer, see the subsection on
page 43.
Note: If you have a Windows 98 or 2000
computer, it is assumed in this subsection that
you have already followed the HP 618 Digital
Camera Quick Start Guide to install the
HP Photo Imaging Software on your computer.
Transferring Images Using the Digita Device Setting
If your computer is running Windows Me, 98, or 2000, you can transfer images from your camera to
the computer by using the default Digita Device setting in the PC Connect Mode submenu. If your
