Did you install the free Canon software, DPP, Digital Photo Professional

 

You can use it to create “watermarks” on your photos as you convert them from RAW to JPEG files.


I have used DPP for years and hadn't realised it could do that, I suppose it's partly because I have never had the need.

It is not smart enough to read EXIF data, and use that as a watermark.  It is just a field of text that you would enter, just as you would with most other photo editing applications.  Watermarks tend to stay the same, and not change very often.

Do you mean have the date actually printed on the photo? You can't. That feature has gone away. I believe there is software that will do it for you, but the camera won't.

Thanks for the suggestions

I think you can add a date stamp when using the Canon Easy-Photoprint EX software.

Though it may only work with specific models of Canon printers.
