Printing photos my 8x10's print perfect, however when I print 4x6 they only print on 1/2 of the page. I have tried "fit to page" but it didn't help. I did not have this problem before. I moved the printer from my office to my home and I cannot figure out what happened. can you help? thank you

You will have to check the equipment driver itself. While attempting to print, try changing the page size (go to page setup). This will give you an idea.
All three replies are incredibly stupid, but especially Frank's. The issue is simply that you're trying to print something that has too much complexity in it for the printer's pre-installed memory to store the final rendering of before printing. The way a laser printer works, unlike an ink jet, it has to take the entire page to be printed and render the final output in memory before the page can be fed through since it doesn't go line by line. If you're trying to print something that has a very complex page in it, such as a full 8x10 photo, the base amount of memory may not be enough. Dell sells a 256MB add-on memory chip you can put in the printer to get around this. Unfortunately the only other way around the issue would be to reduce the complexity of the page; perhaps try printing the PDF scaled down to 70% so the printed output is a lot smaller but also takes up less of the page, meaning the printer may be more likely to be able to fit the page into the existing memory.
What do you mean by very bad - Does the image look bad? If so hold down the COPY and PHOTO button - A Demosheet prints out, how does that look? If the same: go to ww.kodak.com/go/itg and follow the instructions there. If it looks perfect then there's an issue with the source of your images
For this concern try pressing "copy+cancel" for media calibration then try again, make sure you have an A4 paper loaded. If this doesnt help you out try using the Kodak website www.kodak.com/go/itg and use "image quality" for class.
Load a single 8x10 page and press Copy + Cancel until the printer feeds the paper. It will spit it out blank. Try printing another photo. Make sure Kodak logo faces up when you load it
