IMPORTANT: For all operating systems, if you connect your printer with a USB cable and with a wireless connection, your printer may be listed twice. Be sure to select the correct printer. (The name of the printer plus a number indicates a wireless connection; for example, KodakESP5200+1133.)

The Kodak ESP 5200 Series is a line of all-in-one printers that combines the functionality of printing, scanning, and copying into compact and user-friendly units. Among the most notable models in this series are the ESP 5250 and ESP 5260. These printers are designed for home and small office users who desire a versatile device that provides high-quality printing at an affordable cost.

The printers are compatible with both standard and high-capacity ink cartridges, allowing users to choose what best fits their printing needs.

Wireless connectivity is another key feature, enabling seamless printing from multiple devices such as computers, smartphones, and tablets. The inclusion of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technologies ensures that users can print from anywhere in their home or office without the hassle of tangled cords. Additionally, the printers support mobile printing applications and direct print capabilities from memory cards and USB drives.

The user-friendly interface of the ESP 5200 Series is evident with its intuitive control panel and LCD screen, which provides easy navigation through the printer's various functions. The ability to scan and copy documents in various formats also adds to the versatility of these printers, making them great companions for multitasking environments.
