Kodak ESP 3.2 Expert Review

The Kodak ESP 3.2 Wi-Fi All-in-One gives home users the option to print, scan and copy quickly and easily.

It uses two ink cartridges – black and tri-colour – that are also available in extra-large capacity and each of these XL cartridges can print up to 670 pages. The printer is capable of printing images in up to 9600dpi. It can produce 8 pages per minute in monochrome and up to 5.5 pages per minute in colour.

The ESP 3.2 can also print a 10 by 15cm borderless lab quality image in less than 40 seconds.

The printer is Wi-Fi ready and can easily be connected to many different devices, including smartphones, tablets and Apple products. The Wi-Fi set up wizard helps quickly connect devices and, once the printer is on the network, users can print directly from the Google Cloud.

The ESP 3.2 can be used without an attached printer via the 6.1cm LCD colour screen. This lets users print templates that come pre-installed on the printer or to print directly from a memory card. The printer is also equipped with Kodak email print.

All users need to do is email a document or photo to the printer and it will be automatically printed.
