Setting date how do i make the date appear on my photos and not just appear on the screen

The date and time (and a lot more) are stored with every photo in its EXIF metadata. If you want the date printed on your photos then please refer to the documentation for whatever program you're using to print. Depending on the program and printer you may have the option of printing the date on the image, in the margins, or on the back.

The print date option is the date the photgraph was taken, not the date it was printed.

The date and time (and a lot more) are stored with every picture in its EXIF metadata. Any photo viewing/editing program should be able to display this data. To print this data, please consult the documentation for whatever program you're using to print your pictures. Depending on the program and printer you may print the date on the image, in the margins, or on the back.

To print the date
You can set/cancel the printing with the
recorded date by pressing the [DISPLAY]
button after setting the number of prints.
The date print icon [ ] appears.

•When using the software “SD Viewer for
DSC” in the CD-ROM (supplied), you can
print pictures with the date by setting the
position on the print preview screen. For
details, refer to the separate operating
instructions about PC connection.
•When you go to a photo studio for digital
printing, be sure to order the printing of
the date additionally if required.

The date usually only appears on the front. However, most retail photo labs (i.e. walmart) can add custom backprinting to your photos. You can usually only add one line of text for entire order and custom pricing would probably make this a little bit expensive. On that note, the date you have your film developed/printed is usually printed on the back of each print for free, as this is default setting for the lab's printer.

Set the image size to 'postcard'. Press the Function key, scroll down to the bottom icon and select postcard (L, M1, M2, S, postcard). Press Function key again.

To turn the date imprint on, go to the Record menu and set the option for Date Stamp to Date or Date & Time.
