The EasyShare printer is, in a word, awesome. Despite a few
minor flaws, it essentially solves the basic problem of digital
photography, namely that we all have hard drives crammed with
thousands of images and no actual physical photos. (Remember, the
kind you can put on your refrigerator and mail to your mom?) And
it solves this problem affordably, at about 29 cents a print once
you factor in the cost of paper and cartridges. But most
important of all, the quality of the photos it prints is
eye-wateringly good.
Kodak Xtralife coating makes prints waterproof and durable under
typical home use. The EasyShare is a snap to set up, even for
dedicated technophobes like myself. You simply snap the pieces
into place, dock your compatible Kodak camera, and press the
print button. Printing itself takes about 60 seconds. The 4x6
photo paper passes back and forth through the printer four times,
allowing you to witness the application of each primary color and
a final, invisible protective coating. Does it really deliver
archival quality, as cled? There's no way to know for sure
until a few decades have passed, but the colors at least look
sturdily vibrant and crisp. The print quality is in fact much
higher than what I have come to expect from the drugstore for my
film camera prints. The contours are sharp as a , the
contrast pitch perfect. At the push of a button, you can get
multiple prints (two, six, or nine) on a single sheet, which is
perfect for making wallet-sized snaps of the kids.
Among the above-mentioned minor flaws, number one is paper jams,
which happen every eighth print or so. The jams are solved easily
enough by unplugging and plugging the unit back in, but are still
annoying. The second problem is that printing from a PC is not
nearly as smooth and easy as printing directly from a Kodak
camera. Installing the included software is easy enough, but
trying to print from my hard drive was a lesson in frustration.
To get around the PC quandary, you can print directly from any
PictBridge-enabled digital camera or from SD/MMC cards using the
built-in card slot.
Quibbles aside though, the EasyShare printer dock is essential
for anyone wishing to to complete the digital circle from virtual
pictures to real-world photographs with glorious color and
razor-sharp detail. --David Stoesz
