HOW TO HAVE DATE IMPRINT ON PHOTOS..? DIRECTLY TO JPEG

In the next link, check Selecting Print Setting : DPUG1-EN.pdf (page 14 and next)

Good luck (remember to rate this answer).

The camera settings menu should give you the choice whether you want to imprint the date or not. However did you know that digital photos have an invisible exif data file attached to them. It gives you information about the camera model, date, time, exposure etc etc. Some photo viewers like irfanview can show you this file and you need not spoil your photos with a date imprint. ( depending on what they are an imprint can be useful or distracting) .

To have the camera imprint the date on the photos, press MENU, use left/right to highlight Setup, then use up/down to select "Date Stamp".

The EOS range does not automatically "imprint" the date/time on the images. Being digital, most of the information can be found in the EXIF data anyway. If you want to print the photos with the date at the corner, I believe ZoomBrowser EX has that function. ZoomBrowser came with your camera amongst a few other CDs (eg Adobe Photoshop Elements, DPP etc)

In order to imprint the date stamp on photos, the photo size (L, M1, M2, M3, S, Postcard) must be set to Postcard, and in the recording menu the "Date Stamp" option must be set to Date or Date & Time.

I'm with you on this one. The date information is in the EXIF metadata on each photo whether or not you imprint the date/time on the image. There is software available (some free) that will render the date/time on a reproduction of the image. So why make the camera imprint it and ruin what might be an artistic shot?

To disable date imprint, enable the camera as if to take a photo. Press the MENU button, then scroll to the SETUP MENU and press in on the joystick.Scroll up or down to the DATE STAMP option and press in on the joystick. Select OFF.

Dear Bryx,
Unfortunately there is no way to have the nikon d80 print the date directly on the images, but the information is stored to the EXIF data on every image.

Sincerely,
Agent Allan

Throw the cam and buy a good one, this camera was bought by me to record the site photographs but with out a date imprint on them they are not even worth a tissue paper.

download one of these shareware programs-you may be able to find a freeware program if you look-the first paragraph has a good description of why this happens

This does depent on the software you are using to print the images- The data is in the images the computer programs has to find it. What program do you use to print?
