Getting started

Finding a location for your printer dock

???Place the printer dock on a flat, clean, dust-free surface, in a dry location, and out of direct sunlight.

??? Allow 5 in. (12.7 cm) clearance on all sides of the printer dock.

??? For proper ventilation, make sure the top and back of the printer dock are not blocked.

??? When connecting power or USB cables, keep the cables clear of the paper path to the front and rear of the printer dock.

???Avoid areas where ventilation ducts, open doors, or frequent passersby might expose the printer dock and paper to high levels of dust and debris. Airborne dirt particles can affect picture quality.

Installing the custom camera insert

The printer dock comes with a universal camera insert already installed. The insert allows most Kodak EasyShare CX/DX6000/7000 series and LS600/700 series digital cameras to fit on the printer dock.

For best fit, use the custom camera insert that came with your camera and keep the universal camera insert as a spare.

NOTE: For some cameras, you must use the custom camera insert to dock the camera, otherwise the camera will not fit properly on the printer dock.

1 Remove the universal camera insert:

a Push the insert toward the back of the printer dock and lift up the front edge.

b Lift up the back edge of the insert and remove.

2 Install the custom camera insert included with your camera:

a Place the rear tabs of the insert in the slots toward the back of the printer dock.

Changing the printed picture size

1Follow the procedure for printing from your EasyShare camera (see page 13), Kodak 8-in-1 card reader (see page 15), or PictBridge device (see page 15).

2Before printing, while making selections or changing settings, press the Picture size button repeatedly to scroll through the available options:

1 up???one 4 x 6 in. (102 x 152 mm) picture per print (default)

2 up???two 2.1 x 3.3 in. (54 x 85 mm) pictures per print

4 up???four 2 x 3 in. (51 x 76 mm) pictures per print

9 up???nine 1.3 x 2 in. (34 x 51 mm) pictures per print

In most cases, the Picture size setting also determines the number of copies that are printed. For example, if you choose to print a picture with 2 up selected, 2 copies of that picture will be printed on one sheet of paper.

When printing tagged pictures (see page 14), the number of copies that are printed is determined by the setting on your camera or device. For example, if three pictures on your camera are each tagged for printing one copy, and the 4 up option on the printer dock is selected, three 2 x 3 in. (51 x 76 mm) pictures are printed on one sheet of paper.

For best results, choose a picture size or number of copies (on your camera or device) that maximizes the use of white space on the paper.

3 Continue changing other settings or begin printing.

NOTE: When printing from a PictBridge device (see page 15), picture size is controlled by the multi-up setting on the device itself, if available. The Picture size lights indicate the device???s selected multi-up option, based on the closest available format on the printer dock.
