How To Use The Kodack Dock Plus Printer
Tips
Before you load a new batch of paper…
1. Clean the gray roller that feeds the paper with contact cleaner. Do this fairly often as it keeps the machine and photos free of debris.
2. Use 10 pack of photos and make sure you fan them before putting them into the paper cartridge. For some reason, the photos need to take up a but more space to fit correctly or else you will have to stuff it with up 40 photos. If you do that then chances are your photos will come out funny
3.Download the app on your phone and make sure it is updated.
4.During shipping the ink cartridge can come undone so very gently remove the ink cartridge from the printer and make sure it is tight buy carefully turning it using the gear. Return it to the printer before you do any printing.

PROS and CONS
PROS
- Travel ready.
- Prints full 4×6 photos. Can be resized for smaller photos.
- Bluetooth Mode Available.
- Convenient editing App.
- No ink cartridges to replace
CONS
- Takes about 50 seconds to print each photo. That is not really bad considering the layers the printer prints but for those who are impatient this might seem like a really long time.
- Some have reported the printed copy is not as clear as they would like, others have said it depends on the quality of the photo. One person recommended that you darken each picture then sharpen a little before you print.
- Like most technology these days there is an app to download to be able to use the printer more efficiently. So you must have a device that is able to access and download the app. While this can be a PRO it can also be a CON.
- You cannot send a picture directly to the printer by Bluetooth. You have to use the app.
Final Thoughts
Great little printer. Fun, easy to use, and portable. Perfect for printing those family memories or scrapbooking your life stories. Most of the CONS have a positive side too or are completely fixable. Great machine at a reasonable price the Kodak Dock Plus is truly hard to beat and has been a welcome addition to our home and office space, allowing us to print memories like never before.
We actually used this for our family reunion and it was a huge hit. The entire family was printing photos and sharing memories which is great for those like me and the family that are out of town. We also used it to print up our summer family camping trip and made a scrapbook to share with the family on our next visit.
