Abstract: SAN FRANCISCO -- Its hard to believe that Kodak introduced its pigment-based all-in-one EasyShare printers in February. While more expensive than its competitors, our report at the time noted that the three printers use consumables that cost much les...

Initially, we had high hopes for the Kodak EasyShare 5300, with its highly touted, inexpensive ink and potentially better quality scans due to the addition of a CCD sensor. However, our hopes were not quite realized. The printer was slim on features i...

Abstract: Some — myself included — would say that printer evolution is spent. The ink-jet was essentially the end of the line for printer makers. By sticking some tiny holes in an ink bottle and hooking those selfsame holes up to electricity, you got a...
Excellent photo and graphic prints; ink cartridges are inexpensive; control panel is user friendly.
Flawed scanning software; copies are oversaturated; relatively slow print speeds.
The Kodak EasyShare 5300’s impressive performance in printing, scanning, and copying adds up to a solid all-around device, and the low cost to refill it with ink adds extra value. Despite the flaws I found in its scanner software, the EasyShare ...

The EasyShare 5300 has plenty of room for improvement, but with its affordable price and low-cost consumables, the printer will pay for itself quickly. ...
Easy to use, low priced consumables yet relatively high quality prints, plus good LCD

Cynicism aside, the key factor in buying the 5300 is the 50% less consumable costs. So rather than buy a £50 all-in-one from another manufacturer with inks that costs as much, if not more, when you come to replace them, Kodak have a pricier initial p...
The Kodak EasyShare 5300 is nothing if not a crowd pleaser. With its inviting white shell, large buttons, and simple software, its sure to attract digital photography novices. The vibrant but balanced color palette, meanwhile, is likely to have photo ...
