Pros: None that I encountered.
Cons: Incompatibility with common software, painfully slow software installation.

My wife purchased this printer six days ago. Out daughter had a homework assignment due the following day, and she needed to print it out. The homework had been done in WordPerfect v10, the word processor on our home computer. Short answer, it didn't ...

Pros: Beautiful photos and copies, affordable ink cartridges, great design
Cons: Does not support networking

This is the deal with the Kodak Easyshare 5100 printer. I purchased mine about one week ago. As with most any new digital device, there were some problems. This is to be expected so I knew to just have some patience and I could have a great printer with ...

Pros: affordable, easy to use, good photos, great prints
Cons: difficult to set up

***UPDATE*** Jan 2009:  In nearly a year of use I have to say that I have replaced the ink two times (I use the printer very heavily) with each replacement (both color and black) costing under $25.00 to replace.  This printer is very cost ...

Pros: It did print good pictures when it worked.
Cons: You have to keep replacing the printhead.

I purchased this printer on February 24, 2008. It worked fine until May 2008. I started having problems with the black prints coming out faded and lines through the characters. Then I started having problems with printing pictures. I had to continually ...

Pros: Cheap ink
Cons: Horrible overtaking software, garbage interface, high failure rate with ink cartridges, not worth 10 cents

Once again, you get what you pay for, HP & Epson always provide strong reliable printers. Given the performance of my Kodak digital camera, I thought that this printer would actually be a great alternative with approximately 33% discount in ink. All it ...

Pros: low ink price, great scans and prints, high build quality
Cons: doesnt come with its own usb cable, you have to buy it.

The prints come out great on this, especially compared to my ( admittedly old) HP printer. When my HP went on the fritz I had to make a choice so I read about this new printer that saves on ink. I had always felt robbed by the cost of the ink, so I ...

Pros: It didn't work at all. Makes a great $100 paper weight.
Cons: Doesn't work at all! Piece of useless plastic.

We bought one of these at Wal-Mart earlier today. Excited with our new purchase, we took the printer home and the boyfriend set it up... or I should say TRIED to set it up. After following all steps to hook it up, and turning on the printer, it ...

Pros: low cost ink cartridges, quick printing speed, ease of use, great functionality
Cons: size, ink seems to go quick, required accessories not included, costly initial investment

i was in the market for a new printer when i heard about kodak making these new AIO's with cheaper ink cartridges. i purposely waited to buy a new printer until they came out and spent more than i wanted to because of this. While i am pleased with my ...

Pros: Cheap ink, user friendly, and English speaking Kodak support.
Cons: Slightly larger than other brands but so what...it's only $120

I have had my new Kodak 5100 for over a month now and I have made several color photos, scans, and copies. So far I am very pleased with all of the results. At first I had some issues and I was frustrated, but as it all turned out, it was the stupid ...

Pros: Easy to use.Easy to install.Great prints .Cheap quality ink.
Cons: I'd like to see support for wireless networking and Ubuntu.

Like many people I look for reviews online. Then wade through positive and negative reviews hoping that the product I chose was a good choice. I'm glad i bought this printer. What drew me to the 5100 was the ink. My old printer works fine. But it ...

Pros: None when compared to the competition.
Cons: This is a poorly engineered product.

I have the same problem that many others have with this printer, i.e. after approximately 9 months of operation black printing is difficult to obtain. In too many instances the printer seems to be printing as the paper proceeds through the printer, ...

Pros: Absolutely none that I can think of.
Cons: Nothing works. Will not print. No proper instruction book issued. Lights perpetually flash meaninglessly.

I would like to endorse all the highly adverse reviews on this site, but in spades, and only wish we had read them before purchasing. We bought this so-called all-in-one printer/scanner/copier last week, on the express recommendation of the PC world ...

Pros: DO NOT HAVE ONE
Cons: Fire hazard; printer head problems; & power problems.

The first all in one 5100 printer that I got for Christmas I set up and then when I went to print something it just quit in the middle of the paper feeding. The computer said printer had lost power. But the light was on in the scanner and the power cord ...

Pros: Easy to use. Quality of prints (B/W and Color). Update: when it works!
Cons:

Poor printer head quality; have replaced it 3-times. VERY NOISY. Very large printer. Very slow.

I've owned the AIO 5100 for 18-months now and am extremely frustrated. When it's time to replace ink cartridges, I've had to replace the printer head each time. Have replaced ink cartridges two times and had to replace the printer head both ...

Pros: The hardware is fairly good, and it prints great pictures.
Cons: The Kodak and Easyshare software is a total mess. Kodak support is even worse.

I originally installed this printer on my system with no troubles, and it worked great. Then, one day, I tried to scan a document to e-mail by creating a PDF file...it was an option. This didn't work, and I had to use the JPG format. I wrote Kodak a ...
