Kodak easyshare 5300 All-in-One InkJet Printer

I have had this printer for a few years and can honestly say it is junk. My wireless model almost never finds the network and, when it does, it fails to print. The scanner works fine, if it can find the computer (about 10% of the time). Ink is hard to find anymore, which makes sense as no one in the right mind would own one.

The printer works well but only when the UBS is plugged in, the wireless part doesn't work and the printer is quite difficult to use. However its reliable and the ink is cheap.

Blocked print heads, poor print quality and eats ink. Lousy customer service. DO NOT BUY THIS.

If I could score less than one star I would. The printer has jammed from the start! No end of cartridge changes to "free" the head has not worked. I have now through the thing in the skip. I have never had a worse printer. It's so bad I'm not getting a Kodak Again Pants.

load of rubbish! printer heads fail, customer service awfull, what more can you want from a printer?

Since buying the printer in 2008, I have only printed 15 photos, copied 20 pages and used the scanner twice. I found the quality to be average to good but nothing special. I just tried to print off some pictures but the colours were all out and the quality very blocky. I followed the online instructions and cleaned and calibrated but still the same problem. I called Kodak and was told that I need a new print head. This is because I don't use the printer often. However it seems that the print head is a comon problem and if you are under warrantly you get a free replacement. I am out of warrantly so need to pay £25 for a new one. Kodak is the only place you can get one. For anyone who prints alot the printer is adequate - no more, for anyone that prints one in a while then completely avoid getting this printer. Very dissapointing!!

After getting my new printer home and set up according to the badly presented instructions,the printer would not print more than one page at a time. I contacted Kodak by e-mail and they advised me after asking the numbers on my ink cartridges were, that they were the wrong ones and it was not their responsibility. The cartridges came with the printer. Can they not give better instructions in future for some twit who is thinking of buying one?

what a load of rubbish the black ink will not work(i have replace the cartridge 3 times) & the customer help line will only take a USA address

I do not recommend buying a Kodak printer due to my experience.

Having reviewed other feedback on this printer it seems there are design or manufacturing problems. Of course mine is just over 1 year old and PC World are not interested in my opinion therefore I do not recommend Kodak Easyshare 5300.

Does not print in any other photo program except Kodak.

Prints out lines on picture when ink is changed even after head cleaning.

Good quality picture when you get it to work but not enough options to fix any problems. Therefore I do not recommend Kodak Easyshare 5300.
