You can connect a digital camera to the Kodak EasyShare AiO through the USB Port and print directly from the camera. The Kodak EasyShare AiO reads the contents of the memory card while it is still in the camera.
If your EasyShare AiO beeps three times when you plug a device into the USB Port, it means the device is not supported.

Kodak EasyShare 5100 AiO |
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.
Risk of Electric Shock Use only the AC power adapter included with your AiO printer. Other adapters or cords could damage your printer or computer.
1Connect the printer power cord to the AC power adapter, then to the back of the AiO printer.
2Plug the AC adapter power cord into a power outlet.
The printhead dispenses the ink from the cartridges onto the paper.
1Make sure the EasyShare AiO is on.
2Open the printer access door. The carriage moves to a center position.

The Kodak EasyShare AiO supports an optional duplexer (Kodak EasyShare 5000 Series Two-Sided Printing Accessory) that enables printing on both sides of the paper. When installed, the duplexer is automatically detected by the printer and computer system software.
The duplexer is limited to plain paper ( no photo paper). The paper dimensions that can be used are from 6.9 to 8.5 inches (17.5 to 21.6 cm) wide and from 9.8 to 11.7 inches (24.9 to 29.7 cm) long.
You can purchase a duplexer and other accessories for your printer at www.kodak.com/go/accessories.

You can control how long the printer waits before a sheet is flipped by the duplexer with the AiO Home Center (See General Settings).
When the Kodak EasyShare AiO initially powers up, the Light associated with the On/Off button blinks until the unit is ready to operate. After the startup is complete, the EasyShare AiO enters the Copy mode, unless a photo device is attached. If a photo device is attached, the EasyShare AiO enters the Photo mode.
You can print a sample page on US Letter or A4 size paper to evaluate print quality. The Demo Sheet is a single sheet of paper that displays information about the features and capabilities of your EasyShare AiO printer.
