So the XO-translation of this question would be:<br>"How do I get a file onto the SD card such that this HP printer will recognise it as<br>a file to print, and then offer to print it?"<br><br>and then<br><br>"How do I get the XO to create that file?"
<br><br>I'm presuming you have a case where putting an SD card into the printer results in an offer to print. Perhaps as a result of using the SD in a digital camera? <br>- What format is the file on the SD card? Probably JPEG, but verify that.
<br>- If you keep the directory structure the same but replace the file with a new one of the same type of file, will it work with the new file, or is there other metadata which must be adjusted?<br>- Can the XO generate this kind of file?
<br>- Can the XO be 'encouraged' to put the file onto the SD card?<br><br>If you can work through that maze, you have a roadmap.<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Jan 4, 2008 2:54 PM, Kate Davis <<a href="mailto:katie@belisle.org">
