Amazon.com Product Description
Kodak's EasyShare Printer Dock 6000 is the easiest way to create Kodak-quality photos with your EasyShare camera. Simply dock your camera, press print, and you'll have a 4 x 6-inch photo with the brilliance and durability you expect from Kodak. You can even hook up the Printer Dock 6000 to your TV for easy slide show viewing. Just like the convenient EasyShare camera dock, the Printer Dock 6000 transfers pictures to your PC in just one touch and charges your Kodak camera's battery.

The Printer Dock 6000 is compatible with Windows PCs and Macs, but a computer is not required. It's compact enough to take anywhere, so you don't have to wait until you're back home to start printing.

The Printer Dock 6000 uses Kodak color cartridges and photo paper (with Kodak XtraLife laminate coating) to produce prints that are highly durable, waterproof, and tear resistant to last a lifetime. The quantity of paper exactly matches the quantity of archival dye with the EasyShare color cartridge and photo paper kit. It all works together so you'll always know how many more pictures you can print. And because the printer dock is based on Kodak's continuous tone thermal dye transfer process, you can count on getting stunning photos with vivid color.

This package contains the Printer Dock 6000, 10-piece sample photo paper kit, Kodak color cartridge, NiMH rechargeable battery pack for Kodak 6000 series digital cameras, AC adapter, Kodak printer driver software, and cleaning tool.

5 out of 5 stars best Valentine's present ever   February 15, 2004
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

My husband bought me the Kodak share 6330 camera, and this print dock. It is absolutely the best!! Sure, you pay a little more for prints, but you can do them at home, whenever you want. You can also take it with you when you go on vacation, take your pics, and print them out. The greatest thing about that--Say you're at Niagra Falls. You take your pictures, go back to the hotel, print them out. What looked good on the LCD screen wasn't quite what you wanted. Go back in the morning and retake it. You're not back home with your pictures from the developer, saying "This isn't quite the picture I wanted you to see, but it's close." It's light-weight, convenient, and even my 11-year old can use it. No more having to down load into the computer, or waiting for the originals for 2-3 days. WE LOVE IT!!!!


5 out of 5 stars Easy Printing of Digital Camera Pictures   February 2, 2004
10 out of 11 found this review helpful

I saw this item for sale in a Staples ad - $199.95, before a $50.00 mail-in rebate. I also had a $30.00 coupon I received from Staples. So I decided to try this out - for $119.95 plus tax, why not?

The setup was very easy. Pulled all the parts out of the box, then assembled it, which means filling up the paper tray and hooking the paper tray to the printer dock. Then put in the color cartridge, then plug it in. To print just from the camera, you truly do not ever need to turn on any computer.

I placed my Kodak CX6200 digital camera (paid $95.00 for this) onto the dock, and in just a few moments I had a printed picture from the camera. Other reviews about the quality of the pictture are true. It looks like a photo lab-developed picture. I am impressed with it so far.

Then I hooked it up to my computer (you install a printer driver on your computer, then you can use it with your computer after you hook it up with a USB cable) and printed a picture that I have on my hard drive. The docking station hooks up to your computer via the USB cable of your camera, so if you do not have a digital camera with a USB cable, you will need to get a USB cable to hook it up to your computer (the docking station does NOT come with its own USB cable). Once again, easy to do, and an excellent result. I used the Kodak EasyShare software that came with my camera to select and print the picture from my computer's hard drive.

It comes with a starter kit of 10 pages of Kodak photo paper (to print out 4X6 photos), and one printer cartridge. Evidently you can buy refills that have 40 pages of Kodak photo paper and a printer cartridge for about $25.00. This is how you figure about 62 cents per picture ($25.00 divided by 40 = $.625).

So overall, this appears to be a "keeper" for me. The retail price ($199.95) is kind of high - but if you can be patient and wait for another rebate to come out, and/or use a coupon like I did from Staples, then you can get this for quite a bit less. And I believe you will like the quality of the prints.


5 out of 5 stars Great printer dock! More on cost-per-print...   January 7, 2004
6 out of 6 found this review helpful

We have been using this dock CONSTANTLY since our baby was born...and it has worked perfectly every time, producing excellent photos! I use the EasyShare DX6440 camera with it.

A few things about the cost-per-print issue. If you are paying 60-62 cents per print, you are not looking hard enough for a good price. I've found deals that knock the price down to 50 cents per print or better.

Also...the dock and the included software make it very easy to place 2 or 4 different pictures on one 4x6 piece of paper. This is handy if you want to, for example, send pictures of your baby to family/friends, and show your baby in different poses without using up as much paper.

And finally...the convenience is well worth the cost. I love having a print in my hands a couple of minutes after taking the picture. The dock is VERY portable as well...just need a nearby outlet. I was printing pictures in the hospital right after the baby was born! Definitely worth the extra cost, in my opinion.

A first-class printer all the way!

I have 3 digital cameras and usually take pictures and then never really develop or look at them. This printer is in a class by itself. Nothing compares. I buy Sony everything, but not this baby. The camera and the printer are worth the price of admission. Just took the kids to Disneyworld, and I already have photo-lab quality pictures in my Disney scrapbook and the kids helped out. What a cool thing. Do not even think of anything else. I did, and nothing compares.
