Review: This summer I decided I needed an All-in-One Printer and did some research and since I have a Kodak Camera picked the new 5500 AIO Printer on Amazon.com. They showed two places where this model could be ordered and since I am an Amazon Premium...

Pros: Solidly built, no better photos per print cost anywhere.

Cons: Heavy. Large. Will not scan when out of ink. Lousy text scanning. NO LINUX.

The Bottom Line: Great photo printing. OK document printing. Great cost/ print but stil wouldn't buy again.

Review: Almost two years ago, I let my son take my canon mp130 to college with him. It is a great AIO with dirt cheap ink cost if generics used. I had gotten used to the freedom of printing without real concern for cost as $25 worth of generic ink lasted...

Pros: Fast, quality prints Affordable ink Prints dry immediately, no edge trimming needed

Cons: Each 4x6 costs closer to .25 than .10 Kodak claims.

The Bottom Line: Definitely buy this AiO - very good value and excellent quality output

Review: My HP 4100C scanner and HP 932c Printer were both on their last legs, so I was excited to pick this model up. I have had it for 3 weeks now, and it has not disappointed.

Scans are wonderful quality, you can scan several prints at a time,...

Pros: Prints good photos

Cons: Will not print black text!!!

Review: I must be one in a million. I have read all the wonders of this printer,but no faults.
My model 5300 worked fine for awhile then it just quit printing text. We are talking after 6 to 10 pages. It prints photos but refuses to print text off the...

Pros: None I can think of.

Cons: Cheap ink but run out fast. Low quality printing. Need to clean cartridges too often.

The Bottom Line: For AIO printers Kodak has a long way to go. Wait until the second or third generation before taking it into consideration.

Review: I got this printer about a year ago mostly because of the claimed low ink cost . Even though it come from a well reputed brand as Kodak, I didn't expect excellence because I knew they were new in this kind of printers. My idea was to get this...

Pros: Cheap.

Cons: Kodak all in one printers are plagued with a faulty print head design.

Review: At first I thought this printer was great. Then, I was plagued with Print head woes. I would average about 15 prints before the print head would need replacement. Serious design flaw that Kodak is unwilling to admit.

Pros: Great photo prints, inexpensive ink, easy to set up.

Cons: slow printing, very technical, read instructions well

The Bottom Line: Conveniance, & Affordability! Kodak! Inexpensive ink, copy scan, photo quality! A company who's been in the business for over 100 years, and stay's ontop of the changing enviroment!

Review: Photo Quality is Great!!
Set up simple, but more than one tray for type of paper use. Read directions well when setting up and using your multi paper tray. The design of paper and photo paper together is well thought out. Makes less changing of...

Pros: Copys, Scans & Prints on standard size paper ONLY!

Cons: Ink used up very fast, NO partial sheets, slow interface with computer. POOR Button layout.

The Bottom Line: Dissapointing! I would NOT buy again.

Review: We have had this printer almost a year, since it first came out.
I kept my old (gravity feed) printer running for a while so that I could continue to do many create things with my printer.

The main thing that my old printer could do, but...

Pros: Makes other inkjets look like desktop toys, cheap consumables, US based support

Cons: None.

The Bottom Line: Do not consider another Inkjet printer, Kodak has a winner that cannot be touched at this point in time.

Review: I am a small business owner, I own an IT company, btsolved.com, I have used and serviced many different types of printers, dot matrix, band, Laser, Inkjet, bubble jet, thermal, you name it, I have always hated the business model Inkjet companies use...

Pros: Color, Quality, Performance and Price are amazing.

Cons: Doesn't include a USB cable.

The Bottom Line: This is the printer to get. Everything about it is top notch and is without a doubt the best printer I have ever owned.

Review: I have been watching out for this printer for the past few months because the idea of saving ink is a big deal and noticed that my local Best Buy had 4 in stock so I ran out and picked one up for my wife. I had been hesitant since there wasn't a...
