Hi! I could not find this answer on the internet, so as I have managed to solve my problem, I want to share it with you. When you want to print a photo from your D80, make sure you change some settings! Problem: If you use your USB cable to copy your photos from the camera to your laptop, you will see your PictBridge printer is not identified by your camera - instead, "PC" sign is displayed on the top display. Solution: Before plugging camera to the printer, go to settings and change the type of USB Cable from M to P (from Mass Storage to PTP). Now you can plug in your camera and print in a second!

Yes, there are many printers that will do that. The new Epson, HP and Dell printers have a memory card spot to print directly from your camera. Sometimes, there will even be a USB connection to connect straight to your camera from your printer.

No, you can print your pictures on any printer you like, whether that be directly from the memory card or from a computer.
Some cameras come with a lead that will plug into the camera and the computer and, by using Pictbridge software, allow the pictures to be transferred directly yo the computer or the printer. Or you can do what I do which is to remove the memory card and stick it into a card reader which is plugged into a USB port of the computer and read the files just as if they were on another hard disc.
Mobile photo printers are very useful. The main feature is that by connecting the camera to the printer it will directly print the photo without connecting it to a computer.
