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. Do not 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 or load paper.

To ensure getting good signals from your networked computer(s), minimize obstacles between the network router and the printer (and other wireless devices, such as Bluetooth–enabled camera phones, etc.). The printer will function best with as clear a “line of sight” as possible between it and the router.

In addition, keep the printer away from microwaves, and away from 2.4 GHz wireless telephone handsets.

Configuring printer settings

Printer settings can be adjusted in two ways: via the control panel or the Home Center software that comes with your printer (see Home Center Help for more details).
