Kodak Easyshare Printer Drivers

I got a new MacBook Air last December. It is usoing Lion OS 10.7.4. I am trying to load the printer driver for my odak Easyshare G600 printer dock. I have followed the directions I found on line but it does not finish the task. After installation, I restart the copmputer, connect by USB and then when I look for it in the set up screen it finds the printer but will not allow me to add it. Does anyone know where I am going wrong? Thanks

I received this from Kodak today
"Thank you for your e-mail regarding Kodak printer drives.
EasyShare software V5.2.1 for Macintosh is live on the web http://www.kodak.com/go/easysharesw
This update fixes the Sync and Transfer Manager problem that was created with the Mac OS X10.4.4 update. Please do a custom instalation and include the Kodak printer.
If the above did not solve the issue, there should be an update to the Kodak printer driver in the next week or two for compatibility with Mac Intel Core Duo computers.
If we can be of any further assistance please do not hesitate to contact us. If applicable, please quote your camera serial number or your customer reference number.
Yours Sincerely,

Accidentally uninstalled kodak easyshare printer driver

Hi there. I have just bought my first Mac so I am somewhat of a novice. I have a kodak digital camera so I installed the software that came with it. However then I realised that I could upload all my photos through iphoto and so didnt need the kodak software. I dont want to clog up my Macbook with uneccessary stuff so I uninstalled the software. At the end it also asked me if I wanted to uninstall the kodak easyshare printer driver. without thinking i clicked yes. I have been fretting ever since because my mother has a kodak easyshare printer and if for some reason i wanted to use it, i would like to have that option. i dont want to be uninstalling drivers that may come in handy in the future. can someone tell me if this is rectifiable?
thanks
ps i would phone applecare but i dont currently have the leopard installation disc with me as i have just moved house and my things are split between 2 houses 100 miles apart

Hello s:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
Just reinstall the Kodak software and then let it alone. With today's hard drives, it is not necessary to be particularly careful about "cleaning up."

IPhoto '08 no longer prints to Kodak EasyShare printer dock series 3

I installed iLife '08 last week. Used iPhoto '08 for the first time today. It will not longer print to the Kodak EasyShare printer dock series 3 photo printer. I get the message that the "Cartridge and tray type do not match."
I called Kodak. They have never seen this error message before. They had me update the EasyShare software because it is connected to iPhoto in the background when it comes to printing. Everything prints perfectly from the EasyShare software but it still will not print from iPhoto '08. It did from the previous versions.
Kodak believes that it is an iPhoto problem.
Any suggestions? Anyone else have this problem yet. I didn't find any when I did a search.
It's kind of silly to export a photo from iPhoto to EasyShare just to print.
thanks...

I was having the same problem with my Kodak Photo Printer 300, except that I could not print from ANY app other than Preview (I have iPhoto '08 also, but I never used the printer with an older version so I don't know if the problem happened after I upgraded iLife). I was able to work around the problem by using "4x6" as the paper size instead of "L-size." Hope this helps.

Kodak AIO Printer Drivers not allowing sleep

I recently started noticing that my MacMini isn't sleeping at the specified interval set in the System Pref's.
After extensive testing, I've narrowed it down to the Kodak AIO printer drivers (and/or associated software) that's keeping it awake. This occurs across all user profiles and resolves itself immediately upon removal of the Kodak AIO software and drivers.
Looking at the console log going back as far as last night the following sequence is repeated every 30 seconds.

I'm going to contact Kodak but any suggestions? Seems to be happening with recent versions of the driver, but I've not been able to determine at what point or update the Kodak printer drivers/software started exhibiting this behavior.

This is a Kodak problem, not an Apple one. AIO printers often cause the computer to stay awake; sometimes it is due to poor programming and other times it is user error. An AIO printer that includes a FAX that is set to receive faxes must keep the computer awake otherwise the computer cannot receive an unscheduled fax. Well written drivers will allow the user to turn this feature off but that means faxes can only be received when you are expecting them. Even if the AIO doesn't include a fax it is often the cause of computer insomnia.
The solution: (1) before buying an AIO printer check reviews of Mac owners to see if there are reports of insomniac computers with that model. (2) there are shareware and freeware programs that can put a computer to sleep even when the built in energy saver won't. Go to macupdate and search on insomnia

Kodak easyshare 5300 drivers not installing on os 10.9

I just adopted a kodak easyshare 5300 all-in-one printer. went to kodak's support page to get the drivers (dont have disc). once downloaded, I clicked on "installl software" and got this message: "install software cant be opened because it is from an unidentified developer." the only reason I adopted this printer was because my hp deskjet 932 suddenly stopped workiung after i upgraded my mac software to 10.9.....
thanks!

Trouble installing Kodak Easyshare 5300 Printer

I got a Kodak Easyshare 5300 All-in-one printer as a gift. While trying to install it I get the message 'no driver installed'. I realize it is compatible with OSX 10.4.8 or later, but my question is - is there any way around this if I have OSX 10.3.9? Any help will be much appreciated.

Scanning with kodak 5300 easyshare printer/scanner

i have a kodak 5300 printer / scanner that i can't control the scanning from my computer.(i have to use the buttons on the scanner its self) The kodak home centre program on my mac only lets me select (which printer?), setup and maintain, there's no ability to operate the scanner! It's also supposed to be able to scan multiple photos but it only finds 1 of the 3 that i put in. Has anyone else had these problems ? What's the fix?

I seem to have the same problem as you all. In attempting to use the advertised multiple picture scanning option, I ended up using the image capture program, going to browse Devices, even though it was already under the device button. then selected "Use Twain UI" At that point I was able to use some piece of Kodak software that came up. When I enabled the option to look for multiple pictures and told it to do a preview scan, it found all the pictures on the glass, but would only let me scan and save them one at a time, which defeats the purpose. I am also curious as to the advertised OCR program that it automatically uses, I have yet to see that option or see it described in any documentation.

Kodak 6150 printer connection problem with iMac 10.64

I finally got tired of the HP printer eating me alive with ink costs. I purchased a Kodak 6150 printer. Surprised to find out I had to install drivers but that is done.
Here is the problem. If I connect the printer directly via USB to the iMac it works fine. If I connect it to my airport extreme I can print from my Macbook but NOT from the iMac.
Was running a trial version of Intego just to see if possible virus was reason for almost incessent presence of the rainbow wheel - no virus. I turned off the Intego and still no luck being able to print from the iMac.
Per the previous question I did double check and sharing for all is on. The little screen on the printer says it is connected to my network. The printer is about 2 feet from the iMac and the airport is halfway between them so no walls etc in the way.
Any idea's?
Thanks

1. When printers are setup they JOIN a network, and they remember the network name and wireless password. Since that has been changed, you have to REJOIN the printer to your new network of your AirPort Express. Basically, the printer has to be reconfigured. You can always contact your printer manufacturer for assistance.
2. Navigate to the , then System Preferences, then Network. Click on the Advanced button on the bottom right, you should see a box with Preferred Networks. Remove the unwanted networks (such as your neighbors network).

Issues with hooking up an older kodak aio3 printer to a new hp windows 8 computer

I have a new HP p2-1343wb setup that came with a monitor. It is running Windows 8. I have an older Kodak aio3 printer that i used to use on both a Windows Vista and a Windows XP computer. When I tried to intall the software and drivers for the printer off of the Kodak website, when my computer restarted the screen was split in half, and had horizontal lines running across it and the picture was shaking. I removed the kodak software and it fixed the problem. I am not sure if this is a HP problem, a Windows 8 problem or a Kodak problem. I am going to try the other forums too. Thanks ahead of time for any help.

Import captions for kodak easyshare into iphoto

I have thousands of photos in Kodak Easyshare on my old laptop and would like to get them into iPhoto on my new one while retaining the caption information. Is there a macro or some assistance for doing this...some code that can read the caption into from an Easyshare backup and import it into iPhoto?

I'm no programmer but I know a bit of UNIX/Linux scripting and I'm happy to say that I successfully exported my captions from EasyShare into the EXIF description field which is used in Picasa. Before you get too excited, this is messy and you need know a bit about UNIX/Linux if you want to try this, but here we go...
The captions are stored in the EasyShare.me file which should be in Library/Application Support/Kodak EasyShare. Copy this file to the desktop. Then go to Terminal, cd to Desktop, and execute this crazy command:
cat EasyShare.me | LC_CTYPE=C tr "\000" \| | sed "s/|0|/~/g" | sed "s/int4/~/g" | LC_CTYPE=C tr '~' '\n' | grep "|JPG|1|." | awk -F\| -v OFS=\| '{print $(NF-5),$NF}' | grep -v "|$" > captions.txt
In order, this command:
changes binary nulls to pipes
changes pipe-0-pipe and the phrase int4 to newline
find only lines with |JPG|1| with some characters after that string
get the 4th from the last column and the last column
get lines where the captions is not blank
saves it all to a file named captions.txt
The key here is nulls are the delimiter in the EasyShare.me file and that the caption is always in a string that goes:
filename
column that we ignore
column that we ignore
JPG
1
caption
0
So we replace 0 with newline as well as int4 which just shows up everyone and makes our lines shorter. Then we searched for lines with the JPG then 1 then something and we know the caption is the last column and the filename is five columns before the last column.
Now I strongly recommend that you manually review captions.txt. The problem with the crazy format of EasyShare.me is that we can get only get the filename without the path and without the suffix. So if you had two copies of the same filename both with captions it will show up twice in captions.txt. Even worse if you have different photos with the same name (i.e. you bought a new camera and it started over with DSCF1000 for a second time) then there is no way to tell which one is which. And the script which is below has similar problems because it updates all photos with the same filename with same caption. If you have this problem, you will need to do a lot of this manually but you can still save a bunch of time updating the photos where you have only one version.
Now we have the captions and the files to update so we need to do the update of the EXIF field. To do this, you must install Phil Harvey's ExifTool from www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool.
Then you can write a shell script to loop through captions.txt and update the description using exiftool. The following script is rudimentary and has no error checking nor logging. I also couldn't figure out the spaces so I just replaced them with ~ and then replaced back later. But it works. If you are a real programmer you will certainly want to improve it.
Good luck,
Cabe

for LINE in `sed "s/ /~/g" caption.txt`

HT1996 My kodak 5250 printer is not recognised by my Macbook as a wireless printer

I cannot add my Kodak 5250 printer wirelessly to my MacBook - it does not come up in the 'add printer' menu. I've done everything suggested in the Kodak support page about this - updated software and hardware, turned everything off, turned it on again, checked the printer is connected to the network - so what next? It works fine using a USB cable.

And as per usual, after trying everything (it's been two weeks now of trying different things) and then posting online for support, I try again one more time and it magically works again.
I downloaded the HP printer troubleshooting thing again (the third time) ran the wizard again and found the printer (the second time), downloaded the drivers rather than using the disc (for the second time, the first time the installation failed right a t the end) and intsead of adding the IP for the printer at "Printer Network COnnect" step, I looked up the username for the device on my router (HPDDxxxx) and entered that instead.
EDIT: 11/2/13
Tried to print something today - once again the computer cannot connect to the printer. Printer is still connected. No settings had changed since I got it working.
Why is this happening! I need to print things! Very close to giving up. However I doubt I will get a refund from HarveyNorman, because when they test it out it will connect, and that's enough for them to say 'no refund'. Ugh.

How to uninstall print drivers Canon MF4150 issues

Hello all, I am having a nightmare of a time getting my Canon MF4150 to print. It looks from all of the threads on here it was a less than ideal choice for a Mac owner.
When I first bought the unit I managed to get it to print, everything seemed peachy.
Problems arose when I wanted to use the unit to scan. I downloaded a variety of third party software and drivers in an attempt to get the scan function working. I had mixed results, and this process seemed to upset the printing side of things. Once I scanned a document, the printer would then not work.
I abandoned the idea of scanning through the MF4150 and have gone back to dedicated Epson scanner.
Since then I have not had any luck getting the printer to print again.
I have gone through all the MF4150 related threads on these boards I can find, and followed the process to installed outlined here - https://discussions.apple.com/message/7657893#7657893 but to no avail.
I really just want this thing to print and it's driving me nuts.
I have the printer attached directly to my MacBook Pro running 10.5.2. I'm not trying to print through the Airport.
I would like to know how to completely uninstall any UFR II drivers and related software / information and start this process from the beginning again.
So far, using the answer provided by PAHU here https://discussions.apple.com/message/7657893#7657893
I have -
1. Open System Preferences > Print & Fax
> DONE
2. Select the MF4150 printer and press the minus " - " button to remove the printer. Do the same to any other printers that are in the printer list.
> DONE
3. Hold down the Control key and click in the empty printer list. A window showing 'Reset printing system' will display. Click this.
> DONE
4. Close the Print & Fax utility.
> DONE
5. Run the Canon UFR2 v1.70 installer and select Uninstall when the Easy Install menu appears
> This is where I get snagged. I'm not offered a Uninstall option. I have attached a screen grab of the window I am presented with. I am currently trying the "o1141enx_m_ufr224" version of the UFR driver. I have continued to complete the points below regardless of the fact i cannot uninstall.
6. Restart the Mac and run the v1.70 installer again to add the UFR2 files back onto your Mac
7. Go to Applications > Utilities and open Disk Utility. Select the Mac OS X partition in the left pane and select 'Repair Disk Permissions'. When this has completed, quit Disk Utility
8. Open Print & Fax and add the MF4270 again
9. Open TextEdit, type some simple text and select to print.
10. Report back if the above doesn't get you printing.
I have also attach a screen grab of the process I go through when adding the printer.
Any help with this would be amazing. I've tried everything I can think of.
My latest idea is to try and remove any trace of previous printer drivers and go from there. You can see in my list of available drivers in the file attached I now have all sorts of UFR drivers in the list.
Again, if anyone can throw me a line on this that would be great.
Thanks & Regards
Coz

Hello Coz,
It's been a while since you've posted, I hope you have not given up. I was having grief with my MF4150 as well, but got it working. There is a more current driver - search for Mac_UFRII_V230_uk_EN and install it.
Then, when you go to add your printer through System Preferences > Print & Fax, make sure you click the "default" icon in the top of the dialog. It should show your Canon MF 4100 series , then use the bottom drop down menu to choose your driver and select Canno MF410 Series UFRII LT (UK) from the list.

Windows 7 x64 can't read/install any printer drivers from Windows Server 2003 x64 (AMD64 folder and HP Deskjet 855c)

I read the thread Widows 7 printer
HP deskjet 855c driver about possible installation of HP855c drivers onto Windows 7 x64 from "Windows Server 2003 x64" CD but I didn't have enough luck to succeed with doing it on my laptop. That thread appears to be dead now
as it is marked "Answered", so I'm asking for help here. I have Toshiba Satellite P500 with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (http://i55.tinypic.com/2zgth6v.jpg).
Let me tell you first that I don't have access to Windows Server 2003 x64 or XP Pro 64 CD's. However I did some research online, which eventually forced me to learn about the "file sharing". After extensive search I was able to get the copies
of AMD64 folders from Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard x64 with SP2 and
XP Pro 64. The reason that I went also after XP Pro was because I thought that the extra wording "R2 Standard x64 with SP2" in description of "Windows Server 2003" did not reflect the exact name provided by poster
Alan. I couldn't find just "Windows Server 2003 x64" (does it matter?).
Anyway, I followed first the drill with running "printui /s /t2" and disabling UAC, and then in both cases I was able to locate the
NTPRINT.INF file (http://oi51.tinypic.com/9qwvt2.jpg - this image is from XP Pro AMD64 folder) but each time when I
attempted to install the driver, I got the same message stating:
"The folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software drive for your device. If the folder contains the driver, make sure it's designed to work with Windows for x64-based systems." (http://oi53.tinypic.com/27yveiw.jpg)
Why aren't there x64 drivers?
During several installation attempts I had the printer connected to or disconnected from my laptop. It didn't make any difference. I must add that for this purpose I had to use different cable than the original one designated only for the
Parallel port in my old desktop with Windows XP. My new laptop with Windows 7 x64 came only with 3 USB ports (plus 1 HDMI and 1 Serial). Because of that situation I bought in advance a new printer cable called “USB to 36-pin Parallel Port Adapter
Cable” (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003A8I75E). I'm not sure, if it will work until I can install the printer.
Besides, nobody talked about this issue yet. I was also playing with the port choices in "Add printer" step; changing from default LPT1 to USB001 with the same negative results.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I was very hopeful after reading positive "case closed" notes there.
Can anyone help me here, maybe by making the necessary files available for download? I'm willing to pay for such assistance or make a donation, if necessary. Seriously. Judging by the large number of views of the original
thread, one could assume that there is a potential demand for such service. It would be more human to pay few bucks for a few driver files than $900 for the whole Windows Server 2003 x64 CD, no? Can Microsoft accomodate me/us, please? :)
Andrew*
P.S. I was advised to come for help here from
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-hardware/windows-7-x64-cant-readinstall-any-printer-drivers/4e7d06e1-33a5-4597-be70-4fdc087a63a7?msgId=9a045994-0d31-4d40-b17d-dba372393ee4

I have my HP 855c/driver working on Win 7 Ultimate x64. I used the 'printui /s' procedure and 4 files described above with some minor changes.
I pulled WindowsServer2003.WindowsXP-KB914961-SP2-x64-ENU.exe down from the Microsoft website. Running the file causes the exe to unpack into a temp folder at the root drive. A 'Setup Error' message box is displayed once the file is run. I left this
message box up until I copied ntprint.inf, ntprint.cat, and sp2.cab from the temp folder.
I copied driver.cab from a Windows XP Pro disc. I also needed amd64\stdnames.gpd which was already in my Windows 7 c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 folder.
I created a folder with the 5 files (ntprint.inf, ntprint.cat, sp2.cab, driver.cab, and amd64\stdnames.gpd). This is my 'Have Disc' folder.
I followed the 'printui /s' instructions, first changing the permissions mentioned above and then installing the driver. Next I followed the instructions to add a printer from Control Panel 'Devices and Printers' - 'Add Printer', choosing to 'use an existing
driver' when installing the HP 855c.
I used a slightly different ntprint.inf, size 1570418. The readable contents of ntprint.inf is as follows. Notice the line 'CatalogFile=ntprint.cat' is not included. I tried using the 1570468 version of ntprint.inf; when I did I received an incompatibility
message (probably the same one mentioned above).

SOLUTION: Get Win 7 Printer Drivers/HP Solution Center to Work on Windows 8

Took me some time to figure it out, but I got it to work.
First of all, the preliminaries:
I have an HP dv9700t laptop running the 64-bit version of Windows 8 Pro RTM (not the preview, but I assume it will work on Preview as well). My printer is an HP Photosmart C7280. If you have a different printer, it is possible that something similar to how I solved my problem will help you, especially by running your installation files in Windows 7 Compatibility Mode.
Windows 8 does come with stock C7280 printer drivers that work by going into Control Panel>Devices and Printers>Add A Printer, but there's only limited functionality with those. As such, I wanted to run the HP installation files to have increased functionality.
Unfortunately, when I ran the full installation file from HP for my printer, there was no "Install a Printer" button, or any of the other usual buttons. There was only an "Exit" button.
Here's how to get it to run and install properly.
Right-click on the HP Full Installation file, then Properties>Compatibility>then check the box for "Run this program in compatibility mode for:", then select "Windows 7" in the dropdown box, then Click "OK".
Run the installation file as you normally would in Windows 7.
I tried this two ways.....the first while connected via USB cable. It worked just fine with no errors.
I also tried it with the printer connected to my network via WiFi. Ran into some problems.
The installation program would detect my printer just fine, and I clicked "Next" or "OK" or whatever the prompt was to install the printer. The installation would hang on "Reply from SNMP" (or something similar) and it would list the IP address of my printer. I waited, waited, waited for an hour, and it wouldn't get past this. Not to worry.
Proceed with normal installation until you get to the "Reply from SNMP" message and the installation stops responding.
Enter the Task Manager with CTRL-ALT-DEL. You'll see an entry in the "Apps" for the HP installation program....LEAVE THIS ALONE.
Below the "Apps" list you will see the "Background Processes" list. In this list is something along the lines of "HP Network UI", or something similar, consuming a significant amount of CPU. Highlight this entry, then click, "End Task" at the bottom.
The "SNMP" window will close and your installation program will then finish normally and your printer/fax/scanner will be properly installed. HP Solution Center works normally, as does printing, scanning, etc.
Will the next person who uses this give some feedback and also answer some questions for me so I can update this post with more specific information?
Please let me know what the exact "SNMP" message is when the installation hangs. Please also let me know the exact name of the "HP Network UI" background process is, as well as the HP Installation app name.
Hopefully this will help you.
This question was solved.

thanks for the solution. I have an HP Photosmart D110a wireless printer. Windows 8 installed a generic printer driver that worked fine for printing but I lost all functionality to the scanner of the device.
I tried to follow your instructions. I do get an error at some point when the software installer tries to talk to the printer and it gives an error message. It finds the printer OK but stalls. The error message is different and merely reports that there is a problem, no further details. There is indeed a background task "HP Network UI" or similar but ending this task doesn't do anything on my system. The Network UI task ends and the error message stays open. I ended a couple more background tasks but it would not go anywhere.
I then uninstalled the entire package, unplugged the printer, turned its wireless feature off and reinstalled the software in Windows 7 compatibility mode. When it asked to plug in the printer to the USB it finds it right away, the installation continues and is almost finished when it stalls again. This time it reports that it has a problem again and needs to uninstall. Still with the error message and installer open I open the installed "Solution Center" and I can find the printer fine (it actually lists two devices, one being grayed out). It initially gave me an error message when I tried to scan something, but ignored the error. Eventually the scanner worked as intended. I force ended all installer tasks in the task manager and the Solution Center works fine and does all tasks it did under Windows 7, now in Windows 8.
thanks again for the post

HP Remote Print Drivers

Hello,
Just to give you some background, I have a HP PhotoSmart 6180 multifunction inkjet machine. The printer has been wirelessly attached to my home network for about two years now (Linksys WRT54G). All print functions work (printing to photo tray, using the document feeder, accessing the scanner, printing via bluetooth dongle, etc) when I am home on the network. I even have on my Windows Mobile phone an application called HP iPhoto which allows me to wirelessly print to the photo tray. You see, there are no problems on this end.
Here is my problem: Using my Windows-based PC, I have the ability to print to it remotely via the internet. I use the HP Remote Printing, v 2.323.0.0 driver and Instant Share through HP's site. I can also print remotely using any program that has a print function, i.e... Internet Explorer, MS Word, Adobe PDF, HP Solution Center, etc.). However, I cannot choose the photo paper tray. I am only able to change the size of the print job, for instance: 4x6, 8 1/2X11, Hagaki. In the HP Remote Printing Preferences, only two tabs are available: Paper/Quality and Basic. In the Remote Printing Properties, the Device Settings tab (which is one of the tabs available when I look at the properties of the actual printer) is not available. This is where I would add the available trays. I believe it has to do with the driver version.
It would help me tremendously if I can have the ability to choose the photo paper tray when printing remotely. Most of the items that I send to my printer are photos. I've tried and tried to get help from HP, but to no avail (my printer is out of warranty, not applicable for free support, etc.). Please help. It would be greatly appreciated.
Thanking you in advance.

Hi again.
You're quite correct, it is CUPS (Common UNIX Printer System).
Is http://www.linuxprinting.org/database.html what you were looking for?
There are many '1100' HP printers listed.
OSX also installs Gimp print drivers, I'm a total ignoramus as to how you set them up though, sorry.
