• I love this printer

  I've had mine for a couple of months and with a new grandbaby it's gotten a lot of use. I've never had a problem and it is very easy to use and the pictures are wonderful. I love it.
  
  

• Nice but expensive

  I have had the printer for a few days and it does print beautiful pictures but the printer cartridges are expensive. The printer comes with a cartridge and paper but there is only enough to print 5 pictures so you are forced to purchase a cartridge and paper when you buy the printer. A cartridge that prints 200 pictures is $50-$60. Also, the printer feels very cheaply made.
  
  

• Great little printer for only $80...

  I just purchased this printer to go with my new Kodak Z812IS digital camera. I've only had it for a few weeks, but already printed close to 60 pictures on it and it's working great. It is a little noisy compared to my older Easy Share printer dock plus, which is still working fine almost 3 years later, but the noise doesn't bother me. This seems to be a great little printer for only $80. My printer dock plus was over $150 when I purchased it almost 3 yrs. ago, so this seems like a great deal. The ink and paper kits are a little costly, but Amazon offers some good deals on those...better than what you can get at Wal-mart for sure. I can't give it 5 stars because I don't know how it will hold up over time, but I'm guessing like all other Kodak products that I've purchased over the years...it's gonna last a long time!
  
  

• 610 works great

  I bought this printer, and it works flawlessly. Yes it only comes with a 5 page starter bundle. Ok, I bought the G200 picture pack for $54.00, free delivery, no tax. That works out to $ .27 per picture. Hey hop in your SUV spend $4.00 in gas to print 12 pictures at the kiosk at 15 cents a piece. times change, at a party, take some pictures, and print as many as you want for the family, and avoid the cost of 41 cents per stamp to mail to family. This printer really saves time and money. ps you can get this printer for about $65 from other linked vendors.
  
  

• Wish I Could Give Zero Stars

  This Kodak G610 prints great photos the first THREE times. Then the ink will not print a good photo. It actually uses a dye sublimation sheet of film, but changing those does not fix the problem. I have tried two brand new cartridges and all it prints is a ghost of an image.
  
  Hate it. Once again, Kodak promises so much, but doesn't deliver.
  
  
• Useless Printer
  By A2UJUKHJIESR6G on 2008-04-18
  I purchased this as a gift. When hooked up, an error message appeared saying low ink warning. In attempting to review pictures to decide which to print none of the camera functions worked. I called Kodak who went through some suggestions, none of which worked. The Kodak tech concluded it was defective. I returned it to the store and exchanged it for the same model. We got it home, hooked it up and had the same problems. returned it for a refund and will be another model but not a Kodak. Would not recommend this to anyone. Only regret I can't give it no stars.
  
  
• fails test of time
  By A3N6VGTA44L8JR on 2008-05-17
  After just a few uses the dock only prints half a picture. Kodak wants $80 plus $10 shipping to fix it. I told them that I had only used it 4 times. They told me I could return it and get 15% off a new one. The question they could not answer was, Why would I buy another if the first one failed after so few uses? After reading other websites about this I found that I am not the only one with this problem. Kodak does not stand behind their warranties or their products.
  I am now going to get an epson which has great reviews.
  
  
• Bought it mainly for the battery charging feature (for z712)
  By A27X4DMHMAGZR3 on 2008-06-17
  I bought the Docking station g610 Kodak EasyShare G610 Printer Dock and found out after I brought it home and read the instruction book, it requires a specific battery.
  
  Not the battery that ships with the z712 camera. (The CV3 battery is not recharge-able.)
  
  You'll need the Kodak 8324154 KLIC-8000 Li-Ion Rechargeable Battery for Z612 Camera ($25 on Amazon.)
  
  or the equivalent battery version Kodak DLK-8000 Equivalent Li-ion Battery by Lenmar ($10 on Amazon.)
  
  The sample paper includes 5 sheets. You'll get the ink cartridge is low message, but it will still print. According to the brochure inside, the ink included with the paper kits should last for all the sheets included in the kit.
  
  It takes 4 passes for a single print. You'll need room in back of the docking station to allow the paper to partially eject for the print passes. There is also a feature to print wallet size photos, it will divvy up the 6x4 paper into yearbook sized copies.
  
  I bought extra paper with the g610. Kodak 1410596 G50 Paper Kit, 50 4 x6 Sheets, Ink Cartridge ($20 on Amazon, no free shipping on this item.)
  
  And you need a USB 2.0 cable to connect it to your PC. Belkin Pro Series USB 2.0 Device Cable (USB A/USB B, 10 Feet) For $5.84 on Amazon, this price is a steal. Most stores, a USB cable is $20 or more.
  
  
• Be careful of the price!
  By A2QUKI8AR0C09X on 2008-11-27
  The easyshare printer list price from Kodak is only 79.99. There are other sources charging approximately the same price, but the current vendor listed through amazon is charging over $300!
  
  Don't get ripped off! Check Kodak first to confirm the price is reasonable.
  
  
  
• Can't just buy ink!!!!
  By A2W9025GZTO6BC on 2008-08-05
  The printer works good, but I found out quickly that you can not just buy the ink cartridge. I find this VERY annoying considering I have plenty of photo paper and just need the ink, but the only way to purchase an ink cartidge for the printer is to buy the paper too!Something they "forget" to mention!!! Aggg.....so annoying!
