Natalie1,
Once the photo is processed in the camera with the date stamp, it's permanent to the photo. The camera will not have that as a layer to turn off and on at will. It's much easier to add the date/time stamp to a shot for printing then it is to remove it. You will need some editing software such as Photoshop Elements, or Gimp (free), to remove the date/stamp. These software's can do a pretty reasonable job to remove any unwanted elements from the photo. Canon also has their Digital Photo Professional software that comes free with the camera, but it's not as easy to get the nice results of the Photoshop Elements. The change you make with these software's will remove the date/time stamp unless you only mask (layer) it.
