Setting Up Your Printer

Use this chapter to set up and start using your Kodak All-in-One printer.

Selecting a Printer Location

Place your printer on a clean, flat surface in a dry, well-ventilated location, away from direct sunlight. Avoid areas with high levels of dust and debris: Don’t expose the printer and paper to ventilation ducts, open doors, or high traffic, as airborne particles can affect picture quality.

Allow enough space on all sides of the printer to comfortably connect and disconnect cables, change ink cartridges, and remove and load paper.

Handling and Loading

Paper

Your Kodak All-in-One printer accepts print stock of various types and sizes, including letter and legal-size plain paper, photo paper, transparencies, T-shirt transfers, envelopes, cards, and labels. It automatically detects the size and type of photo paper loaded into the paper tray, thus producing the highest quality output for that paper.

The paper tray accepts media from 4 to 8.5 inches wide, and up to 14 inches long; its capacity is 100 sheets of 20 lb. plain paper. You can load up to 30 sheets of 4 x 6 inch (101 x 150 mm) photo paper into the paper tray.

For best results, use Kodak paper with your Kodak All-in-One printer. Kodak photo paper has embedded watermarks that are read by your printer. This allows the printer to detect the paper type, automatically make adjustments to optimize the final output.

Handling Paper

Follow the precautions below when handling paper:

• Hold the paper by the edges; avoid placing your fingerprints on it

• Do not touch the glossy side of photo paper

• Store paper flat, away from direct sunlight and heat (such as in a car parked in the sun)

Loading the Paper Tray

Your printer accepts A4, Letter, Legal, 8x 10, 5 x 7, and 4 x 6 paper, as well as evenlopes, transparencies, and labels. The paper tray capacity is 100 sheets of 20lb. plain paper.

Kodak ESP 5 Printer User Guide 13

Handling and Loading Paper

Loading Plain Paper

1 Pull the paper tray all the way out until the paper

guide flips up on the right side.

2 Slide the paper-width guide to its left-most

position.

3 Align the edges of a stack of paper.

4 Insert the stack of paper into the paper tray with

the print-side down.

5 For paper less than 8.5 inches wide, squeeze the

paper-width guide and slide it to the right until it lightly touches the stack of paper.

6 Leave the aperp tray open when paper is loaded.

7 Pull the output tray extender all the way out.

8 Lift the small gray paper stop (at the near edge

of the output tray extender) until it is perpendicular to the tray.

Loading 4 x 6 Photo Paper

You can load up to 30 sheets of 4 x 6 inche (101 x 150 mm) photo paper into the paper tray. Photo

paper must be loaded coated side facing down.

1 Remove all other paper from the paper tray.

2 Insert photo paper into the right side of the

paper tray print-side down, with the short edge forward. Do not overload the paper tray.

3 Slide the paper forward until it stops.

4 Squeeze the paper-width guide and slide it to

the right until it touches the loaded paper.

5 Leave the paper tray open while the paper is

loaded.

14 Kodak ESP 5 Printer User Guide

Things to Keep in Mind

• After you finish loading paper into the paper

tray, eave the paper tray open during all print, copy, and scan jobs.

• Lift the small gray paper stop (at the edge of the

output tray extender) until it is perpendicular to the tray. This prevents the printed paper from sliding off of the paper tray as it exits the printer. This step is especially important when paper more than 11 inches (279 mm) long is loaded in the paper tray.

Chapter 3

Warning: The hinged section of the paper tray serves as the paper

tray door when the ESP 5 All-in-One is closed. Avoid lifting it perpendicular to the paper tray, even when it is extended out. When paper is held against the paper tray door, the printer may pull it into the printer after it has been printed, causing a paper jam.

Loading Plain Paper

Viewing and Printing

Photos

You can print images directly from PictBridge, image-transfer digital cameras, mass storage cameras, thumbdrives, and memory cards. You can also print photos and most types of files that can be printed from a computer program from a portable storage (“flash”) drive, or from any computer connected to your All-in-One printer.

Note: For assistance on printing from a connected computer to this

All-in-One, refer to the instructions from the software application (such as a word-processing or image-editing program) used to send the file to the printer; or, review your computer’s operating system instructions.

Although this All-in-One printer is compatible with the Kodak 8-in-1 USB card reader (sold separately) as well as other Kodak USB card readers, it is not compatible with other manufacturers’ card readers. An 8-in-1 card reader can be plugged into the front USB port on your Kodak All-in-One printer.

Warning: Do not remove a storage device (memory card, portable

storage drive, or image-transfer camera) from the printer while it is being accessed, or you may damage the files on it. Safely remove the device only after the green status light, located next to the memory card slots, stops blinking.

Viewing Photos

Insert one of the following plug-and-play devices into the appropriate slot:

Note: Always use the USB port on the front of the printer. To avoid an

error, use only one slot or port at a time.

Image-storing Digital Camera USB port Kodak Bluetooth dongle USB port

Note: If Tagged Image Printing is enabled on this printer (see

“Configuring Printer Settings” on page 11), it detects a Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) file when you insert a memory card. The printer screen prompts you to verify that you want to print tagged images. See “Printing Tagged Images” on page 20.

Caution: Do not insert more than one memory device, such as a

portable storage drive (USB) or memory card, into the printer at a time. An error message will display when a second device is connected to your printer unless you are already printing a job. The error message will only display after the print job is complete.

Note: Photos stored on a PictBridge camera are displayed on the

camera screen.

Configuring Photo Print Settings

You can change the factory default print settings for your printer using the control panel. Windows users may adjust some settings using the All-in-One Home Center software (see Home Center Help for information on using Home Center).
