    I was about to bitch about how I just bought the HP Photosmart Premium All-In-One recently ($190 on Amazon) until I realized that this beast, while beautiful, was FOUR HUNDRED FREAKING DOLLARS. Mine's essentially the same thing in white minus widgets.

    Fuck, more and more SDKs for new devices every year. Soon we are going to need an Android for printers.

    I wish printer companies would start adding support for email2fax services, let you set it to be able to send from your account, tell it the format of the email to send to (ie $num@domain), and when you send a fax, encode to pdf and email it for you vs needing to dial in. I mean, it already has wifi.

    Seems kind of strange to have a printer... with no text input device. I know it's for photos and web content but um... yeah... word processing is usually near the top of the list of "wtf am i gonna do with a printer"

    I work retail and all Kodak printers, with the exception of the small photo printers, are crap. We've had so many returns on these with complaints about smearing and having to replace broken printheads about every 6 months. It seems to me they skimped on the printer to lower ink prices for this campaign.

    @Needz: I tend to concur, having had some experience with Kodak printers. I think the problem is that people think of printing photos, and the Kodak name inspires confidence. It's a mistake to equate Kodak's knowledge of photography and film developing to printing color images with inkjet technology. For now I vastly prefer Epson and HP inks and printers for the closest to true photo quality. They cost more, but the results are worth it if you want decent photos that don't smear or fade.

    The ink is cheap. The demos I have seen look about the same as other inkjets. ALL inkjets have a common issue. If you do not use them regularly, ink dries and clogs the print head, at least on the Epson, Canon, and HP units I have owned. That dates back to the first HP DeskJet 500 I had which used EITHER a 3 color OR a black cart. When you replace the rather expensive HP cartridges you get a new print head. on the others, if the head is clogged, you might get lucky, or you can buy a new printer or print head. Kodak can provide a new print head. Basically inkjet technology has its limits.

    I have no need for the printer but I will say that I do wonder why Kodak keeps reusing names. I mean how many products have used Kodacolor? I mean Ektar has gone to lenses and different types of film before being reused again by their newest film.

    They better not reuse the name Kodachrome though ...

    I wanted to make a joke here, so I was trying to think of a device where a touchscreen is laughably unnecessary. Then I realized "a printer" already was the answer.

    @bill cant fart: Actually, I could see a touchscreen being very handy on a toilet. Such a visual display could let you choose different levels of flushing, depending upon what's in the bowl--for instance, liquid, solid or corn on a log raft. Just touch the matching pictograph, voilà, an efficient water-saving flush!

    @bosskev: Touchscreens are great for a wi-fi printer. You can use them to enter in the wireless key, and to determine what all you want to do with photographs. You can remove red eye or crop or anything else.

    I can't imagine ever doing anything remotely like any of that EXCEPT at my computer. I mean, why in the hell would somebody want to do photo editing/adjusting/cropping at the damned printer and NOT at their computer? It makes zero sense to me.

    I have the canon model that is just like the MP560, but last years model. Great little machine. I personally like the LCD that can display a good amount of info and the print tray that automatically lowers when you print. They certainly are worth the money and have everything you need for a student/home printer.

    A bucket? WTF? Is it actually green like that too? Looks like something for little kids, not adults. "Here, kids, dump what you can into the bucket and see what prints out!" Zip! Bing! Bang! BOOM! "Dad, we got Kelly Le Brock again!" "WAHOO!"
