Some customer reviews of Kodak Hero 5.1

- Good points:
- Like the double sided printing. Don't know if it works for photocopying as well as printing from the PC files.
- Bad points:
- It is taking me some time to find out how to use this machine but that could be because I do not use it non-stop. Paper input tray rather shallow (compared to my previous HP machine) and awkward to access - have to lift output tray. Prefer printed instruction booklets to on screen help. Would also welcome demonstration course which is not rushed.

Nilesh,
- Good points:
- None
- Bad points:
- The printer head was not recognised by the printer regardless of what I tried. I contacted Kodak helpdesk and am waiting for them to provide me with a new printer head. It's possible that once I get this printer head my printer will work without any problems but this wasn't what I was expecting when I purchased this printer.

- Good points:
- Good printer able to have my main computer wireless as well as the lap tops, so one less wire to have hanging about. Prints well haven't done any photographs on it but for paper printing it is good quality.
- Bad points:
- Can be a bit noisy on start up, but nothing i can't live with.
