This printers ink does cost less, BUT it runs out much faster than the other printers I have owend. The printer doesn't work at all when one ink cartridge is out. Like if the color is out, it won't just print black and white. It is also very loud. The paper gets jammed a lot. We also have trouble keeping it connected to the computer for some reason. We never had that trouble wth any of our other printers. Please don't waste your money on this printer!!!

What's great about it: can download photos from the printer
What's not so great: everything else
I've had this printer for 2 years now, well it has been replaced 3 times, replaced the print head 2 times and it eats ink like you wouldnt believe. I counted how often I used it before having to chance the ink. 26 4x6 pictures, 33 B&W full page prints and 15 full page color prints. And then I had to replace both the color & B&W ink cartridges. You always have to change both ink cartridges at the same time, dont know how they both run out of ink at the same time, but OK. If the ink runs out, then you can't even use the scanner or the memory stick ports until you replace the ink cartridges. It is loud, always jams up, sucks more than one sheet of paper in at a time. Scans slowly. Would never recommend this printer to anyone. I wish I would have read the reviews before I bought it. Even though Kodak customer service has always replaced what I wanted and also sent me free ink cartiridges, it was always a min of one hour on the phone with them. When you ask for a supervisor, there is never one avail

I have had this thing over a year and it has worked maybe 2 months of that time. burns through ink in a flash. the printer head has broken twice and has had to be replaced. always causes an error when printing (sucks in too many pages). worst thing i have ever purchased!! i am now looking to buy another printer from another manufacturer. I will never buy another Kodak product again based on the quality of this printer and lack of support from their CS.

What's great about it: Pictures / images look great when it works, ink is cheap
What's not so great: Hardly ever works
I have had this printer for over a year and I have had issues with it from day one. It looks great sitting on my desk and the ink is cheap but that's about all the good I can say about it. I am going to sell it in the next garage sale and buy something else, it may even be another Kodak but it surly will never be this one again.

What's great about it: Ink is not expensive
What's not so great: Prints times are blatently wrong, does
I have been using this printer for about 10 months for work and I can flat out say I do not recommend this printer at all. Unless you do almost no printing each month, this will be a waist of money. I handle public affairs in my department, hence I do a lot of photo and word processing printing, usually 4-5 times a week. I can, say personally that unless your monthly requirement will be about or less than 30 pages a month, regardless of color or black and white, you will not be pleased
It jams on me about twice a week, its print quality deteriorates over time, its scan function is poor at best and it is never reliable. I highly recommend anywhere else but here.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This printer is terrible. The quality of prints at first was not bad but after a short period of time the quality became terrible. Most times when I'm printing the ink seems to fade and half the page does not print. I have an old HP printer that prints beautifully and I fell for the "savings" on the ink. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! I absolutely would not recommend this product and will never buy anything Kodak again.

What's great about it: Nothing
What's not so great: Cartridges are good for about 20 sheets. The print quality is only fair. Vastly overpriced.
This printer is touted as having the cheapest cartridges but in the long run that's just not true. It seems like every time I print out more than a few pages it's out of ink. I do little printing but I get about 4 weeks out of a black cartridge.
A very poor bargain for the money, avoid it like the plague.
I'm giving mine away to the Hospice store and will buy something else..

What's not so great: prohibitively LOUD operation
This is the absolute worst printer I've ever worked with. EXTREMELY loud in everything it does. Not worth the amount you save on ink... by a long shot! Also, frequent paper jams (about 1 out of 5 jobs).

I have had this printer for about a year. I had VERY high hopes when I purchased this printer, it was my first Kodak printer. But... I have had it replace 3 times and to date, I have not used it for the past 3 months because I cannot print anything with black in it and the paper jams constantly. As we speak I am going to purchase a new printer, because this one has be VERY unreliable. Don't waste your money.

What's great about it: cheap ink, all in one, nice photo print
What's not so great: everything else, broken down like 3 times in a year, constant paper jams,
It was fine for a little while but has very poor quality. It gets paper jams and recently a paper jam broke the printer. I am so careful with putting paper in it which is ridiculous. It won't let you print unless you have a sufficent amount of black and colored ink even if you are only using black ink which most of the world is usually doing.
This thing just sucks. Its cheap ink but not worth the stress it puts you through. my mental health is worth more than $9.99

What's not so great: Paper jams easily
After the first few months it printed excellent photo's, then it started slipping and got to the point that no picture or document had the right colors.
Paper jams when printing are often and have now gotten to the point where the printer no longer is even working. The printer is only a year old and is going to be replaced with a non Kodak brand.

I replaced a Canon printer with this one, the Canon cannot even compare to it. Digiatal screen gives easy instructions. Wireless works great. Fast printing. Quality priniting even on photo paper, and the color cartridge is HUGE! My old printer cost me $50 to replace the cartridges........this one, $23!
Works great! I would recommend it!
