Summary: Awsome prints
Comment: I had researched many different printers. I'm an avid scrapbooker and have gotten tired of only creating layouts with 4x6 photos but wanted something convient so I could print good quality photos. I had resigned myself to the fact that I was gonna have to pay big $$$ for a good printer and then much more $$$ later for all the ink. When I found this one offering cheapper prints than I would pay at the store I thought I'd give it a go, at the very least I could turn it into the desktop printer for my other computer if I didn't like it.
When I printed the first photo I was THRILLED! It makes super photos, expecially for scrapbooking. Prints very fast and the prints come out already dry. Kodak has really matched their competetors with this one.

Summary: Great printer AND customer support online
Comment: My Kodak esp3 printer was printing badly last week and I went to the website to troubleshoot. I have had it for about 7 months. The diagnosis was a bad printhead which they OVERNIGHTED to me at no cost. I didn't get around to installing it until today. They have an online visual installation insteruction AND included two new ink cartridges as well but it works fine now with the older partially used ones so now I have extra! What a great deal. If you have any problems check with the Kodak website.

As to the previous reviewers complaint about having to use Kodak paper, I like the optioin of printing photos but I do only a few. I take my pictures elsewhere (Discount Drug)when I want a lot printed. I got tired of paying a bundle just to print non-photo stuff.

Summary: Good Printer, at any price
Comment: I was a little cautious about getting this printer based on some of the negative reviews it had received. However this printer with the included ink cartridges cost only a little more than one set of cartridges for my old Lexmark. As soon as I set up the printer I went to The Kodak site to get the latest software and firmware. The firmware upgrade I downloaded to my printer is said to improve ink management and error detection and reporting. The only part that I found to be noisy is the initialization after turning the power on. I have found the actual printing to be no noisier than any other ink jet I have owned. The owners manual online is a plus. I recommend downloading a copy to your computer. The only short coming I see is that the paper tray design could be a problem for high quantity print jobs since the printer discharges over the paper supply. The copies are sharp and vivid. I am very pleased with my purchase. Be aware that the usb cable is not included, but Amazon has good prices on those.

Summary: Great all-in-one for home use
Comment: I have had the printer for about 2.5 months now and haven't had any problems. Had it set up and working in a matter of minutes.
Some other reviewers seem unhappy about its lack of bluetooth or that it doesn't have a USB cable in the box. This didn't bother me because I wasn't expecting it to be bluetooth compatible, and I knew it didn't have the USB cable in the box.
Pros:
- Easy set up. Installed drivers from CD, plugged in USB cable, worked like a charm.
- Prints fast
- I love having scanning and copying capabilities built in. Have used both and it worked just fine.
- Inexpensive ink
Cons:
- Louder than most printers (I have seen other reviewers comment on this as well)
- The paper tray design is a little weird. The output paper almost lies on top of the input paper. Seems to work fine for smaller print jobs but my guess is that it wouldn't for larger print jobs.
- Copying/scanning must be done one page at a time. But this is typical of most home printers.
- Would be nice to have automatic duplex printing. But most home printers don't.
So if you're looking for a high end professional office printer for high volume copying, duplex printing, etc., then this probably isn't the printer for you. If you need a decent home printer/scanner/copier it works great.
