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.
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 Kodak dock adapter D-26. See the instructions included with the dock adapter. a Remove any packing material covering the connector.

If your EasyShare digital camera came with non-rechargeable batteries:

Lithium 3 V, CRV3

If your EasyShare digital camera came with a rechargeable Li-Ion battery:

2 AA, 1.5 V

install it in your camera. use the Ni-MH rechargeable battery pack that came with the printer dock* Do not use the Ni-MH rechargeable battery pack that came with the printer dock*
* Contents subject to change. NOTE: The Kodak EasyShare Ni-MH rechargeable battery pack and Kodak Li-Ion rechargeable battery are not charged when you receive them. Completely charge them before using them with your EasyShare camera (see page 10). For battery information for other brands of ImageLink print system compatible cameras, see the camera users guide.

Extending battery life

Limit the following activities that quickly deplete battery power: Reviewing your pictures on the camera screen Using the camera screen as a viewfinder Excessive use of the flash
Dirt on the battery contacts can affect battery life. Wipe the contacts with a clean, dry cloth before loading batteries in the camera. Battery performance is reduced at temperatures below 41 F (5 C). When using your camera in cold weather, carry spare batteries and keep them warm. Do not discard cold batteries that do not work; when they return to room temperature, they may be usable. If you are getting fewer than 20 pictures per charge with your Kodak EasyShare Ni-MH rechargeable battery pack, (and if none of the tips above seem to help), consider refreshing the battery pack (see page 11).
For more information on batteries, see your camera users guide, or visit www.kodak.com/global/en/service/batteries/batteryUsage.jhtml.
Docking and charging your digital camera
Docking your digital camera lets you make prints directly from the camera, transfer pictures from the camera to the computer, and charge the camera battery. The Kodak EasyShare printer dock series 3 is ImageLink print system compatible. So in addition to docking Kodak EasyShare digital cameras, you can dock other brands of ImageLink system compatible digital cameras. 1 Make sure a custom camera insert is installed on the printer dock (see page 2), and a dock-rechargeable battery is installed in the camera (see page 8). 2 Place the camera on the printer dock. Push down to seat the connector. Keep the camera wrist or neck strap clear of the paper path to the front and rear of the printer dock. The camera is now powered by the printer dock instead of the camera battery. The Kodak EasyShare Ni-MH rechargeable battery pack and the Kodak EasyShare Li-Ion rechargeable battery charge up to 3 hours. The Battery charging lights turn on as charging progresses. Charging is complete when all three lights are lit. You may leave the camera on the printer dock to maintain the charge. For battery information for other brands of ImageLink system compatible cameras, see the camera users guide.

Printing from your digital camera

Printing from a Kodak card reader
The Kodak EasyShare printer dock series 3 is compatible with the Kodak 8-in-1 card reader and the Kodak 6-in-1 card reader (each sold separately). Other Kodak USB card readers may work with the printer dock; however, other manufacturers card readers are not supported. 1 For best results, tag pictures on your memory card for printing (see page 12 or your camera users guide). If you do not tag pictures on your memory card, you will have the option of printing only the most recent picture on the card. 2 Plug the USB connector from the card reader into the USB connector located on the side of the printer dock. NOTE: If the card reader is already plugged in but the connection is no longer available, disconnect then reconnect the USB cable to re-establish the connection. 3 Insert the memory card into the card reader (see your card reader users guide for details). Do not insert more than one card at a time. 4 Press to begin printing, or press to cancel. Purchase a Kodak card reader and other accessories at a retailer of Kodak products, or visit www.kodak.com/go/accessories.
