KODAK Photo Printer Reviews

There is a serious bug with KODAKPhotoPrinter where the photos print at a very low resolution regardless of the source resolution. It looks like KODAKPhotoPrinter is loading the image at a lower resolution than what is available. The old “Kodak Instant” app still works and doesn’t have this issue.

To see the problem, try to zoom in (crop) a photo after you select it. Now do the same in the old app, or on your iPhone camera roll. The difference is very obvious, in the other apps you can see the detail that is there in the source image, but in KODAKPhotoPrinter it appears blurry.

Tested on the P300R printer.

I was forced to upgrade from KODAKPhotoPrinter that worked and I enjoyed using to this. Now I get an error message that I can’t access my photos. I have checked and double-checked my settings for KODAKPhotoPrinter. There are no suggestions on how to fix the problem I didn’t create. Now I have a Kodak PD460 that I can’t use because the developer forced an update onto my Apple product!!! SO disappointing. It’s awesome that you’ve added AR functions but stinks that you’ve made the basic function of printing a photo from an album an adventure of frustration. Did I say the old Instant Print App worked well?

I don't need KODAKPhotoPrinter to have access to my mic. Gave it access to camera and photos, that makes sense, but without access to the mic it refuses to move forward with setup.

We’re fortunate the other app for instant printing still works - Kodak, please be responsible and test your new apps to make sure they work and don't have sketchy privacy issues like above before attempting to push us over to a new app.

It stinks to have to write a bad review for a product, but this is the second Kodak product I’ve purchased that was awful quality (small insta heat printer and Instant Dock Printer).

Both products yield terrible quality prints regardless of high quality image resolution. The quality for both products was so bad, I feel like I wasted my money.

If you haven’t unboxed your product yet, take it back, ask for a refund, and go with HP for mini prints.

Don’t buy the printer!!!

KODAKPhotoPrinter requires you to grant access to all your photos to use the printer. I can only imagine that Kodak is making money from the data (photos) after you purchased their photo printer. I dont want Kodak to have access to all my images so I can’t use the product correctly.

You can still use the old app, it will request for you to use the new app, and select the images you want to share with Kodak, then print. This is annoying but it works.

I hope Apple looks into this issue. If this was a free service I would understand but this is an app to use a product and film that you have to purchase.

Crashes every time I try to print a collage. Only stays connected to Bluetooth for a minute or so before needing to be reconnected (which sometimes it just won’t do). The prints are meh, but KODAKPhotoPrinter makes this a very expensive paper weight. What’s the point of overcharging for a popular gimmick accessory if you can’t develop an app that feels like it was made in the last decade??

It is a pocket photo printer. I need add geo data, date, place, etc. I can’t even add text.

I just received this P300r printer. I love it! The prints come out really well.

However, I have tried to no avail to print a collage. No matter what collage template I use, KODAKPhotoPrinter shuts down and nothing prints. After trying for 30 minutes to figure it out, I will assume there is a bug somewhere.

App developers: fix the bug so collages print! TY!

Overall I’m impressed. I will give KODAKPhotoPrinter 5 stars when the collage function works.

You NEED access to ALL my photos and my camera…don’t like it but fine. But more I am “denied access” to KODAKPhotoPrinter because I won’t grant access to my microphone. Please explain why you need access to my microphone to print my photos. I will be returning this product because now I can’t use it.

iOS allows you to give apps selective read access to photos along with write access. KODAKPhotoPrinter forces you to give it access. To your ENTIRE photo library or it won't work. This is a predatory privacy-exploiting practice. Shame on Kodak.

A terrible upgrade that wants to force me to give access to all my photos. You don’t need it, I won’t give it.

Kodak responded to the above… in Korean. It’s that kind of attention to detail that is causing people to dislike the nonfunctional update. Can I give zero stars now?

It won’t print! I literally checked the connection so many times and it’s connected but when I push the big “print” button, it doesn’t do anything. All the other buttons work, just not that one.

Forced to update to a different app. Now, even though I have followed all the steps in my settings, KODAKPhotoPrinter still says ‘access denied’. It won’t access my photos and cannot print my pictures. Totally useless. 😕

Did everything the instructions said and I’m young and very good with technology. Looked up multiple videos. This thing won’t even let me print anything. Terrible product.

This news system might look better but it makes everything harder. Please give back the old one.

Wow! It’s mind boggling how such a simple app can be developed to be so buggy and without any self respect Kodak decides it’s ok to release it to their customers. Too bad…The retro mini 2 prints excellent quality photos but KODAKPhotoPrinter is so frustrating I’m returning the printer.

Siding used to be white but after an update it’s yellow…

Im just trying to use my printer, and KODAKPhotoPrinter wont even load my photos, and if it does it wont show me my recents.

This printer doesn’t work with either app.

Ever since KODAKPhotoPrinter replaced the old one, my photos don’t print the same. The image printed is off center and washed out. KODAKPhotoPrinter doesn’t function the way it should, for example when I tell it to prong multiple copies of a photo it never does. Or if I make a queue of photos to be printed, it will print only the first one and then stop. Sometimes it will not print a photo at all and tell me that the print job is completed. I never had these kinds of problems with the old app AND the print quality was way better. I’ve been disappointed by every photo I’ve printed since KODAKPhotoPrinter replaced the old one.

This is by far the worse transition to another app I’ve seen in a while. KODAKPhotoPrinter constantly malfunctions with my printer and I need to restart the printer or app to then be able to print more than one time. KODAKPhotoPrinter crashes and the colors everything prints as is off. I even compared the apps using one picture. KODAKPhotoPrinter makes everything lighter and almost as if it gives off a shine

My P300R mini 3 retro printer no longer prints as it should with 4 pass color print and does not show in KODAKPhotoPrinter the print process. KODAKPhotoPrinter is of no use if the product does not work. Customer service has not contacted me to help or to replace the printer. 🤬

I cannot stress enough how much I love the Kodak mini photo printer. It’s fast, compact, affordable, and incredibly useful. KODAKPhotoPrinter does what it’s supposed to do and I’ve never had any issues. Bravo, Kodak.

Love this and love my kodak mini 2 retro printer. I have a trouble using the id photo template tho. I’d also love to have the ability to add text on the photo like the old kodak printer app.

Changed app from Kodak insta printer (which worked fine). KODAKPhotoPrinter does not line up correctly. And the colors are off! ☹️

KODAKPhotoPrinter causes the printer to malfunction often. Went back to the old app
