This printer may not be that popular, but at least it is manufactured by a very well known manufacturer: Kodak. It may be weird, because I have selected a printer that uses the inkjet technologies when printing files, but this doesn't mean that you cannot use the menu that is located near the top of the printer. It is not located exactly on the top, because there you will place the pages that you would like to copy because this is also a multifunction printer. At the same time, the top is destined to the pages that are printed.

The name of the printer is Kodak ESP6150 4 in 1 inkjet printer, that costs 179.36 GBP. I am presenting the price in GBP, because as I have said earlier, I have selected this product from Amazon.co.uk. The printer enables more productivity for you and it is capable of printing up to 32 pages per minute in mono and up to 30 pages per minute in color. The maximum copying speed is of up to 27 pages per minute in black and of up to 26 in color. I always like to see what are the reviews made by the customers that have already bought this product, this is why today also I have selected to speak about a few reviews made by actual customers.

Unfortunately, I can see that there are no reviews made in relation to this product. What have I told you? Maybe this manufacturer is worldwide known, but this product is not that that known, if we cannot find a review made on Amazon.co.uk. If you ask me, this product should be better known, not because it is manufactured by Kodak (ok, because that too), but because it is a real good product. Take a look only at the printing speed and copying speed. What do you think?

The technology makes perfect use of heat and transfers the dye impregnated in a ribbon to the sheet of paper. In addition to the standard cyan, magenta and yellow, the ribbon also contains a clear coating that is used as a protective layer. The coating turns the prints into waterproof and sun resistant photographs that will maintain their quality for years on end.

This particular printer is a bit larger than your average, measuring 3.1 x 13.1 x 7.3 inches and weighing 2.8 pounds. Its design is nice and reminds you of how most digital cameras look. On top of the printer you will find a 3.5 inch LCD screen, which is rather low-resolution but will do decently as functionality. You may notice pixels when previewing a photo to print out, but you’ll get the general idea of what you’re printing so one can’t complain that much aside from esthetics. The navigating menu is pretty simple and straight forward (maybe too much so) and you’ll use a set of dedicated buttons for going forward, backward in the menu and making selections.

As many other similar devices, the Easy Share 500 Kodak photo printers also offer versatility. The Easy Share 500′s users will be able to print directly from memory card, a compatible PictBridge digital camera or camera phone or straight from the PC. Also added is built-in Bluetooth for printing from any compatible device, which is somewhat rare as most printers only offer Bluetooth via an optional (separately purchased) adapter.

The 8-in-1 Card Reader, found right on the front of the device can handle most types of memory cards including Compact Flash, MultiMedia Card, xD, Memory Stick, Secure Digital, Magic Gate and others. If you think you need yet another alternative you can purchase separately a 802.11b card that will allow your printer to connect to a network wirelessly as well as to any WiFi powered device.So you can basically print from any device that can store pictures through just about any technology that’s currently available on the market. That doesn’t sound bad for a printer that retails for under $200.

Some nice features these Kodak photo printers have to offer include the PerfectTouch technology that makes pictures more realistic and bright or red-eye-reduction at the touch of a button. The Kodak 500 is ideal for users who want a mini kiosk that works without a PC and can be brought along just about anywhere. They’ll be limited as photo size to 4 by 6 inches (maximum, but 3 x 4 inch with borders, 2×3 inch and 1.3 x 2 inch mini photos can also be printed) but will have all the options in the world when it comes to devices that can be used to print from.

The documentation that comes with the s3 is not extensive and, unfortunately, support at Kodak‘s Web site is minimal, although you can download both the driver software and firmware. This review, happily, covers those operational tidbits that are hard to find otherwise.

What makes Kodak‘s EasyShare printers special are the added features. The camera dock that can charge your camera’s batteries, run a slide show on your TV, and use the camera’s LCD to navigate the printing system makes this an easy sell if you’re also buying an EasyShare camera. But it’s also a compelling addition to your wireless network, providing a 4×6 photo printer to anyone on your network. And its small size and independent nature mean it can tag along with the camera (even an ordinary PictBridge-enabled one), not the computer.
