1 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.

5 in. (12.7 cm)

 Allow at least 5 in. (12.7 cm) clearance from the back of the printer dock for paper travel.

 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.

 Allow enough space on all sides of the printer dock to let you connect and disconnect cables, change the color cartridge, and add paper.

www.kodak.com/go/support

Getting started
Installing the custom camera insert
IMPORTANT: Use the custom insert that came with your digital camera to dock the camera, otherwise the camera may not fit on the printer dock.
 Locate and install the custom insert included with your camera.
IMPORTANT: Depending on your camera connector, you may also need to use the optional Kodak dock adapter kit D-26.*
a Remove any packing material covering the connector.
b Place the rear tabs of the insert in the slots toward the back of the printer dock.
c Press the front of the insert down and snap into place.
* Contact customer support for a dock adapter if it is not included with your product. Visit www.kodak.com/go/dfiswwcontacts.

Getting started
Connecting the power
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK: Use only the AC power adapter included with your printer dock. Other adapters or cords can damage your camera, printer dock, or computer.
1 If a digital camera is docked, remove it. 2 Connect the AC power cord to the AC power
adapter, then to the back of the printer dock. NOTE: Depending on your country, the AC power cord plug may be
different from the one shown. 3 Plug the AC power cord into a power outlet.

Handling and storing the color cartridge
 For best quality prints, store the color cartridge in a location where the
temperature does not exceed 85 °F (30 °C).
 To avoid getting fingerprints on the ribbon, handle the color cartridge by the spool ends.
 Keep the color cartridge away from direct sunlight and out of high-temperature environments (such as a vehicle parked in the sun).

www.kodak.com/go/support

Getting started
Installing and removing the color cartridge
1 Open the cartridge door on the side of the printer dock.
2 Check to make sure there is no slack in the color cartridge ribbon. To remove slack, push in on the cartridge spool, then rotate the spool clockwise.
IMPORTANT: Be careful not to rotate the spool more than that necessary to remove slack. Doing so could reduce the number of prints you are able to make.
3 Slide the color cartridge in, label side up, with the arrow pointing toward the printer dock. Push the cartridge until it "clicks" into place.
4 Close the cartridge door.
 To remove the color cartridge, open the cartridge door, then push up on the green lever and slide the cartridge out.
IMPORTANT: The color cartridge may lock in place if there is a paper error. Do not attempt to remove the cartridge without first clearing the paper error. Make sure the Paper light is off before attempting to remove the cartridge (see Paper light under Status lights, page 58).

www.kodak.com/go/support

4

Getting started

 During printing, or upon connecting the power, the Color cartridge light glows amber for 10 seconds if there are five or fewer prints remaining.
 When the cartridge is depleted, the Color cartridge light glows red. Install a new cartridge (see page 4).
After installing a new color cartridge, press the Print button, , to clear the cartridge error and resume printing.

Handling and storing the paper
 To avoid fingerprints, handle the paper by the edges or by the perforated tabs. Do not touch the glossy side of the paper.
 When storing, remove the paper tray, then close the paper tray cover and paper tray door to keep out dust and debris. Store paper flat.
 Keep the paper away from direct sunlight and out of high-temperature environments (such as a vehicle parked in the sun).

Getting started
Loading paper
1 Remove the paper tray from the printer dock if installed (see page 7). 2 From the closed position, slide the paper tray cover back, about 3 in. (8 cm) to the second "click". This is the fully open, or paper loading position.
3 Carefully "fan" the paper to keep the sheets from sticking together.
IMPORTANT: Do not load more than 25 sheets of paper. Use the upper limit line inside the paper tray as a guide to prevent overloading. Do not load paper that is missing perforated tabs.
4 Load the paper into the paper tray, with the Kodak logo side facing down.

Printing without a computer
Effect of picture size on number of copies
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 are printed on one sheet of paper.
When printing tagged pictures (see page 15), 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. (5.1 x 7.6 cm) 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 optimizes the use of white space on the paper.
NOTE: When printing from a PictBridge compatible camera or device (see page 15), picture size and number of copies are determined by the device's multi-up and copies settings. Change these settings on your device before printing. If the picture size option selected on your device does not match any of the picture size options on the printer dock, the closest available picture size option on the printer dock is automatically selected.

Troubleshooting

Problem Unable to remove color cartridge (Paper light may glow steady red or blink)
Paper runs out before the color cartridge (or vice versa)

Cause and/or solution
IMPORTANT: The color cartridge may lock in place if there is a paper
error. Do not attempt to remove the cartridge without first clearing the paper error. Make sure the Paper light is off before attempting to remove the cartridge (see Paper light under Status lights, page 58).
 Check to see if the paper tray is empty or if paper is missing perforated tabs. Reload paper if necessary (page 6), then try again.
 Make sure paper is not jammed. Clear the jam if necessary (page 49), then try again.
 Disconnect then reconnect the power and try again.
IMPORTANT: Upon reconnecting the power, the color cartridge may
advance to the next picture slot on the ribbon, resulting in a supply mismatch (see below).
 Supply mismatch can result from several different situations, including:
--Scrapping of paper as a result of jams or other errors
--Gradual advancement of the color cartridge ribbon due to removing ribbon slack or clearing jams
--Advancement of the color cartridge ribbon upon reconnecting power to unlock the color cartridge
Supply mismatch is likely to occur as you continue to use your printer dock. To keep your cartridge and paper supply synchronized, discard unused cartridge or paper when one or the other is fully depleted.

Regulatory compliance
FCC compliance and advisory
Kodak EasyShare printer dock plus series 3
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed or used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

75

www.kodak.com/go/support

Appendix
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: 1) reorient or relocate the receiving antenna; 2) increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver; 3) connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected; 4) consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for additional suggestions.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. Where shielded interface cables have been provided with the product or specified additional components or accessories elsewhere defined to be used with the installation of the product, they must be used in order to ensure compliance with FCC regulation.
CAUTION: When using the Wi-Fi card with a printer dock: This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 7.9 in.

Appendix
SAR statement (when using with Wi-Fi card)
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. Kodak Wi-Fi® card (3F8508) has been tested and found to comply with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled equipment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65. The maximum SAR levels tested for Kodak Wi-Fi® card (3F8508) have been shown to be 0.616 W/kg at Body.
FCC and Industry Canada
This device complies with Industry Canada RSS-210 and FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
