Kodak ESP 5250
$160.00
Released September, 2009
The Pros:Improved print quality and speed over the previous generation offering. Wireless connectivity - print from anywhere on a wireless network without requiring an online PC host, can be placed anywhere within range of the wireless router. Compact.
The Cons:Overly simple - lacks functionality such as scan to PDF or scan to e-mail, etc... Paper feed errors. No auto document feeder.
The Kodak ESP 5250 is one of two all-in-one color printers (ESP 3250, ESP 5250) released in mid 2009. Both printers utilize Kodak’s Kodacolor technology, which reduces ink costs by up to $110 a year.

Like its predecessor, the printer handles black/white printing (up to 30ppm), copying (30ppm), and scanning (1200dpi). And it fits either 100 standard sheets of paper or 20 photo sheets between 4x6” to 8.5x14”. Additional features include a USB 2.0 interface, lower power consumption, and manual two-sided printing. Black cartridges retail for $9.99 and color cartridges for $14.99.
