Kodak states I can get over 400 each of black and color pages. So NOT true in my case. I am lucky if I get a couple dozen ea. What's your experience?

I quit buying kodak ink, I buy compatible ink from ld products, it's less money and seems to last longer.A lot of my printing is making copies of crossword puzzles, they use up ink quickly but they last me about a month. My kodak printer just died, and bought a Brother all in one, and the ink lasts longer, not as inexpensive as the kodak but printer is much faster, quieter, and cost much less.

Agreed. The ink runs out incredibly fast! I feel like after 10-20pg the quality starts waning and it only gets worse until I need to buy more ink, yet again.

I have the same problem. I am forever buying new black. The color lasts a bit longer. I keep an extra black around all the time. I bought a Kodak printer when my old HP died. I wish I had never made that purchase. $$ $$ $$....

I have a Kodak ESP 9250, which uses these cartridges, and I've had the same issue as well. My theory is that the ink dries out quickly if it's not used right away. I use fewer than 100 sheets of paper per year, but find myself buying ink once or twice a year.

As there is no disc/software as with the Kodak, just convert them to jpegs ( in a seperate iPhoto file/so you don't get the lower res photos mixed up and you should be good to go.

I just spoke with an Epson salesperson and he confirms that the 630 comes with the Extra high-capacity color cartridges and has for some time. His actual words were "it has ALWAYS come with the 127 cartridges" but I have have learned to take such info from salespeople with a grain of salt. I have forwarded Epson's current "What's in the Box" ink description to Amazon along with the Epson site link so we shall see if they update the info.FWIW, BH Photo also shows the 630 with the 127 cartridges but I haven't checked on any other sites.

they have *more* ink than regular cartridges. some ink is used for startup, and after startup the remaining ink is the same as what you'd buy at the store -- 3000 black pages, 2500 CMY.

You know, I thought it was just something I did wrong. Example: I will have a one page project that I need 15 copies of and sometimes it will only print one copy no matter how many I put in for it to print and other times I get all the copies I ask for. So now that you say that, I'd have to say it is a glitch. I have Windows 7 also and an old HP Office Jet Printer.

I ended up with the MP620. It seems okay so far, but I really have not done much with it yet...just printed out a few regular pages. Haven't tried the scanner, copier , or photo printing yet. Keep on meaning to , but just haven't yet....I will try some of these things in the next few days and send another reply if that will help. One thing, it said "quick start" and it doesn't seem to be very quick, but there may be some setting I have to change for that and I've pretty much just been turning it on and clicking print....

Sorry, I do not know the answer to this question. Some time ago I noticed that Photo Paper for the Kodak Printer Dock became quite expensive. This may be related to Kodak bankruptcy. I switched to the Canon Selphy CP780 printer in 2009. It is a very good and relatively inexpensive printer.

I am not sure what the problem is, but I can tell you that I had two of these printers and they gave me a lot of trouble before completely breaking....both in less than 6 months. I would just save yourself the trouble and buy a canon pixma. The printer is cheap and works amazing....not to mention that it prints on both sides of the paper on its own which saves me during school. I will never buy a Kodak again. If you are stuck with this printer double check on your end and make sure it is the printer defect. Try a print preview before printing to see if it shows the whole article. If this does not help try reinstalling the Kodak software.

I have never tried to count the maximum copies my printer can make. But I can tell you it is not many, for the ink dries very quickly if you do not keep on printing. Even if the ink does not dry, the ink gets used up very quickly. So, both ways. I will stay on the 300 side. (or less)

I have only printed a few photos with my Kodak Hero 7.1 printer and they did come out ok. The only drawback I have is this printer uses a lot of ink. I am constantly replacing the ink cartridges which cost about $30 for a color and black ink cartridge. It is actually cheaper to have your pictures printed at online places like Snapfish and Shutterfly. They offer great deals all the time.

Emma I don't know the answer to your specific question BUT this an absolutely horrible printer!Kodak advertises it as economical through lower cost of inks. The truth is they're not that much lower and it will not accept anything but OME (ORIGINAL MANUFACTURES EQUIPMENT -IE THEIR) ink.AND the ink only lasts 10/15 pages AT MOST.Don't take my word for it. Read some of the reviews of this printer. I strongly discourage you from buying this worthless product.

HP says it will print up to 450 sheets or 250 photographs. But I wouldn't buy it from Amazon. I bought a black and tri color last year, and had nothing but hang-ups and "check cartridge" messages with them. So I went back to Costco and bought the pair, black and tri-color, and voila, no more problems. I have a feeling the supplier to Amazon is selling refilled cartridges, so beware.

I have a hp6300 photo smart all in one printer and have printed out over 6000 pages on it according to the print counter. I have never had any problems with these 564xl black. I think they give me about 400 copies but if I set the printer to economy I get lots more. I rarely do this though. I stick with the genuine HP brand and not the refilled ones. I have had problems with them as they lots of times leak or won't start. Pay the difference and get quality. You won't be cussing your decision to go cheap. Life aint worth it.Chuck in Montana

I haven't used it for photos, have another canon printer for that. It all depends on the type of paper and the size of the photos. I can usually get between 250 and 500 sheets of combination text, graphics and photos using standard inkjet paper.

Had this problem w my last Kodak printer, had to order new print head after trying several things w customer service. Got new part, installed next day something else broke, customer service then said I needed new printer. Only reason I got another Kodak was the price and I already had a bunch of the ink that I couldn't return so I bought another one. This one paper jams daily. I don't think I'll buy another Kodak

Much depends on what you're printing. Some images by their nature will require more dye than others. You should be able to get close to the number of sheets you purchased per cartridge though coming up one or two prints shy may happen.

Yep, I still have 100 freshly sealed-packed 'HP Premium Plus' and some opened quantity of 50 (for a total of about 150 or so), fed it to the Artisan 810 and the results were atrocious! The ink does not dry and the pics looked like a bunch of old photographs from 1981 -- sort of yellowish, brownish sepia effect with black dots all over. Then I decided to print on some of the samples that came along with the Epson and the prints were the best I've seen so far, also, the inks dried up instantly. As a matter of fact they looked better than the ones produced by your local Walgreen's or Rite-Aid.
