After wasting both time and money having 35mm film developed for decades, I made the jump to digial two years ago. When Kodak introduced this compact little photo printer I was fast to take it home. I'm not one to sit and read a manual cover to cover, but this unit is simple, all you need do is follow the simple instructions and you will be printing professional quality photographs directly from your Kodak digital camera in no time flat. I especially love the feature that allows you to modify how many pictures are printed on one 4x6 print -- you can choose wallet size, mini sticker size or 3.5's -- this makes it convenient to include shots in greeting cards without printing full size pictures all the time. The bundle pack can be purchased for under $350 and you'll get the camera along with this nifty printer dock plus a starter ink & paper set; also sold separately. The icing on the cake is that Kodak lowered the price for the refill ink and paper cartridges so you can purchase a multi-pack for less than $40 on sale and print off 180 photos from one box. All with the touch of a single button! Awesome deal, no matter how you look at it.

This wonderful printer dock from Kodak produces great pictures with brilliant color. My family and I recently went on a trip to Disney World and, camera-holic that I am, I took almost five hundred pics while there. Needless to say, things don't get much more vibrant colorwise than Disney World. I printed six of the pictures from our trip the minute that I received this from UPS. It's a super simple wonder to use. The pictures came out clear, sharp and vibrant.
My daughter took her picture with just about every character that we saw, but her pic with Ariel in "Ariel's Grotto" had more bright and contrasting colors than most of the other pics. I immediately printed that pic and I must say that I was very pleased with the outcome.
The dock is very simple to use. My Kodak CV7300 fit snugly on top of the dock and the pictures that came out were beautiful. In fact, Kodak made it so simple to use this dock that I was actually afraid that I'd screw something up by taking the few steps that I did. However, if you're still learning the ropes of digital cameras like myself, Kodak's entire line helps even the most novice of digital photographers.
Wonderful product, great price, and worth every penny of it. I highly recommend this printer dock from Kodak.

KODAK EasyShare Printer Dock (Series 3) A++++ August 29, 2005

Great little printer and re-charger for my Kodak EasyShare Z760. The quality of the pictures is outstanding! Still, it's still cheaper to print out your digital photographs at the local pharmacy/grocery store (i.e., Vons, Sav-On Drugs, etc.). However, for those few pictures that you just got to have and can't wait, this little printer will save you the time and hassle of not having to go down to your local store. For the money, you can't beat Kodak quality.

I've owned the Printer Dock Plus Series 3 for about 6 months, and found it to make better prints than I could get from my Canon 960. So I sold the Canon. The Canon inkjet inks dried up if I didn't use the printer for a month or so, and the ink cartridges were $12 each. The Kodak inks do not appear to dry up over extended non-use. So I'm saving a bundle on replacing the expensive ink cartridges. I did keep a 8 year old Epson ink jet just to print 8x10's, and I go on Ebay and buy the cheapest color cartridges that I can find which is about $10 for the color and black and white cartridge. It works great for the short term school and work reports.
I teach digital camera classes at the local schools, and the Kodak Easy Share software editor is universally despised and loathed. Don't install the Easy Share Software, and if you have to install it, go into the settings and make sure it doesn't run at start up. You don't need the software if you are just printing from your camera. Once this software is installed, it is programmed to automatically try to copy pictures from anytime you insert a device such as a USB, CD, DVD or another camera.
If you want to use the dock from your PC as another printer, you can just hook it up via the USB cable and install the PRINTER DRIVERs. You have the option of NOT installing the EasyShare software editor. Once this is hooked up, you can just manually copy photos from your camera's memory card to your PC via a USB card reader, and print 4x6s from your favorite photo editor.
If you are looking for a photo editor to print from and do simple things like darken and lighten, and red eye correction, then use Google's Picasa. It is free, and has a terrific user interface, and you can easily print from Picasa to your Kodak Printer once the printer is attached to your PC via the USB cable.
The prints are perfect, fast, and durable, and I have never had a problem with the print quality. However you must order the 160 pack of paper from Amazon which will get your price per print down to about 25 cents a print. Amazon has the very best deal on this paper.
