Memory Stick Duo miniSD MicroSD (TransFlash)
The Memory Card light is a green LED located near the memory card slots. It lights whenever you insert a memory card, and flashes while the care is being read. The flashing serves as an indication to not remove the card while it is being read, or written to, which could potentially damage the data on the card.
Automatic Document Feeder
The Automatic Document Feeder on the scanner has a tray capacity of 35 sheets of 20-24 lb plain paper. The paper dimensions you can use are from 7 to 8.5 inches (17.8 to 6 cm) wide, and from 10 to 14 inches (25.4 to 35.6 cm), including 8.5 x 11 pages. Paper is automatically detected when loaded.
CAUTION The Automatic Document Feeder is for plain paper only and cannot feed photo paper.
NOTE: You can make 2-sided to 1-sided copies, but not full duplex copies.

2 Getting Started
Getting Started
It is important to find a good location for your AiO Printer. Place the printer on a clean flat surface, in a dry location, and out of direct sunlight. Make sure the printer has proper ventilation.
Avoid areas where ventilation ducts, open doors, or high traffic might expose the EasyShare AiO and paper to high levels of dust and debris. Airborne particles can affect picture quality.
Allow enough space on all sides of the EasyShare AiO to let you connect and disconnect cables, change the ink cartridges, and remove and load paper.
Connect Power
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK Use only the AC power adapter included with your AiO printer. Other adapters or cords could damage your printer or computer.
1 Connect the printer power cord to the AC power adapter, then to the back of the AiO printer. 2 Plug the AC adapter power cord into a power outlet.
Install the Printhead
The printhead dispenses the ink from the cartridges onto the paper.
1 Make sure the EasyShare AiO is on. 2 Open the printer access door. The carriage moves to a center position.

Configuring Settings
You can configure settings for your Kodak EasyShare AiO using the Control Panel and the AiO Home Center software.
Use Print Order if Found
The Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) is an industry-standard file that can be created by some digital cameras. Camera-selected photos are photos you tag for printing with your digital camera. When you select photos with your camera, the camera creates a DPOF file that identifies which photos have been tagged for printing. Your Kodak EasyShare AiO can read the DPOF file from the memory card in a camera so you do not have to re-select the photos to print.
NOTE: Not all digital cameras allow you to tag your photos for printing. See your digital camera
documentation to see if it supports tagging (DPOF).
When you print tagged photos, the selected default layout is applied, unless your camera allows selection of sizes.
The DPOF file is stored by the digital camera on a memory card and specifies the following information:
Which photos to print
The quantity of each photo to print
Index printing (thumbnails of selected photos)
The default setting for using a detected DPOF file is Yes.

CAUTION If you have a DSL line and do not connect the DSL filter, you will not be able to send and receive faxes with your EasyShare AiO.
1 Obtain a DSL filter from your DSL provider. 2 Connect the phone cord supplied with your Kodak EasyShare AiO to the open port on the DSL filter and
the port labeled 1-LINE.
3 Connect the DSL filter cord to the telephone wall jack.
PBX or ISDN Line
If your telephone line has a PBX system, make sure you dial the number for an outside line before dialing the fax number.
CAUTION Many digital PBX systems include a call-waiting tone that is factory-set to On. This call-waiting tone will interfere with any fax transmission, and you will not be able to send or receive faxes with your Kodak EasyShare AiO. You can disable call-waiting from the AiO Home Center.
If you are using either a PBX or an ISDN converter, make sure the EasyShare AiO is connected to the port that is designated for fax and phone use.
Some ISDN systems allow you to configure the ports for specific phone equipment—for example, you might have assigned one for telephone and Group 3 fax and another for multiple purposes.

Print Photos from a Proofsheet
A proofsheet is a simple and convenient way to select photos and make prints directly from a camera or memory card without the need for a computer.
Proofsheet printing is a two step process. In the first step, you connect a PTP camera or insert a memory card and print a proofsheet. In the second step, you select pictures to print from the proofsheet and then scan the proofsheet into the EasyShare AiO.
IMPORTANT: If the AiO printer goes into standby mode, power is lost, or you unplug the memory card,
camera, or USB device before you scan the proofsheet, the proofsheet session number becomes invalid and you will need to re-print it.
1 Insert a memory card into the appropriate slot, a mass storage device into the USB port, or connect a
digital camera to the USB port. The first photo is displayed.
WARNING
Never attempt to remove a memory card while it is being accessed. Doing so can damage files on the card. You can safely remove a card only when the status light next to the slots is not blinking.

Tagged Photos (DPOF)
The Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) is an industry-standard file that can be created by some digital cameras. Camera-selected photos are photos you tag for printing with your digital camera. When you select photos with your camera, the camera creates a DPOF file that identifies which photos have been tagged for printing. Your Kodak EasyShare AiO can read the DPOF file from the memory card in a camera so you do not have to re-select the photos to print.
NOTE: Not all digital cameras allow you to tag your photos for printing. See your digital camera
documentation to see if it supports tagging (DPOF).
When you print tagged photos, the selected default layout is applied, unless your camera allows selection of sizes.
The DPOF file is stored by the digital camera on a memory card and specifies the following information:
Which photos to print
The quantity of each photo to print
Rotation applied to a photo
Cropping applied to a photo
Index printing (thumbnails of selected photos)

If you set up the EasyShare AiO to answer faxes automatically, it answers all incoming calls and receives faxes. If you set it up to answer faxes manually, you must be available to respond in person to the incoming fax call. For more information on receiving faxes manually, see Receiving a Fax Manually.
In certain situations you might want to receive faxes manually. For example, if you share a line between your EasyShare AiO and phone and you do not have distinctive ringing or an answering machine, you will

need to set up the EasyShare AiO to answer fax calls manually. This is because the EasyShare AiO will not be able to distinguish between fax calls and phone calls.

The first column in the table lists the type of phone line equipment and services. The second column lists the appropriate Auto Answer setting. The third column describes how the EasyShare AiO will answer incoming calls.

The EasyShare AiO will not automatically answer calls. You must receive all faxes manually by pressing Fax. For information on receiving faxes manually, see Receiving a Fax Manually.
The EasyShare AiO will not automatically answer calls. Instead, the answering machine will answer the call and the EasyShare AiO will monitor the line. If the EasyShare AiO detects fax tones, the EasyShare AiO will receive the fax. If the call is a voice call, the EasyShare AiO ignores the call.
This is the recommended default setting if you have an answering machine. Make sure the answering machine is set up properly with the EasyShare AiO.
Also, set your EasyShare AiO to answer the phone after the answering machine. The number of rings to answer for the EasyShare AiO should be greater than the number of rings to answer for the answering machine. You want the answering machine to answer before your EasyShare AiO. For more information on setting the number of rings to answer, see Set Rings to Answer.

Rings to Answer
You can specify how many rings should occur before your Kodak EasyShare AiO automatically answers an incoming call. This setting only applies if Answering Machine Mode is set to On.
The Rings to Answer setting is important if you have an answering machine on the same phone line as your EasyShare AiO. You want the answering machine to answer the phone before the EasyShare AiO. The number of rings to answer for the EasyShare AiO should be greater than the number of rings to answer for the answering machine. For example, if your answering machine is set to answer in 4 rings and your EasyShare AiO to answer in 5 rings, the answering machine will answer an incoming call first and the EasyShare AiO will monitor the line. If the EasyShare AiO detects incoming fax tones, it will receive the fax. If the call is a voice call, the EasyShare AiO ignores the call.

Error Correction
When error correction mode is enabled, it eliminates data that is lost due to poor phone lines by detecting errors that occur during transmission and automatically requesting re-transmission of the erroneous portion. On poor phone lines, error correction mode increases sending time, but sends the data much more reliably. The default setting is Off. Turn error correction On only if you can accept poorer quality faxes. If you turn error correction On, this only affects black-and-white faxes that you send; it does not affect faxes that your receive. If you are having problems sending faxes, you can also adjust the fax speed to see if this solves the problem. For more information on fax speed, see Fax Speed.
