Kodak EasyShare Printer Dock Plus Series 3

The dock is meant to automatically recognise when the camera is connected and allow you to download your photos.

Overall I would not recommend this printer, even though the odd time that it does work there is a fine print, 9 times out of 10 it s a struggle. You would be better to get a printer which prints documents and has options to print onto photo paper as I have one of these to be much better!  ... more

Having owned this product for just over a year I can safely say it is pretty much useless! There are several things wrong with this product which makes it just a complete waste of money.

First of all the Dock is designed so you can download your pictures from your digital camera to your computer and also print off your favourites, bypassing a computer, onto glossy photo paper. The dock only takes Kodak digital cameras models: CX 6000/7000, DX 6000/7000 and LS600/700.

The dock is meant to automatically recognise when the camera is connected and allow you to download your photos. However what normally happens is that the camera has to be attached and reattached and turned on and off until it works. Then when it is recognised it will begin to download to your PC, to the poorly designed software - the Kodak Easyshare center. This often messes up and puts all your photos into old albums and makes it very difficult to print back to the dock.

On the printer side of things, this is also a very difficult process. The paper often won't feed into the printer and will need to be held BY HAND just to get it inside. A plus point would be to say that once the paper has fed the print is very fast and the quality of the final print is very high. Printed 4 times as Cyan, Yellow, Magenta and then a final glossy covering.

On the subject of ink and paper, these are very expensive and ONLY Kodak brand paper will work in the printer.

Overall I would not recommend this printer, even though the odd time that it does work there is a fine print, 9 times out of 10 it s a struggle. You would be better to get a printer which prints documents and has options to print onto photo paper as I have one of these to be much better!
