- Jun 30, 2020 Because the operating system includes most of the printer drivers Mac users need, don't install any drivers that came with the printer.

I've found a solution to install the AiO Installer software from Kodak in Mac OSX Sierra 10.12.6
Once you download the latest available driver from Kodak (KODAK_AiO_Printer_v7_9.dmg) here: http://support.en.kodak.ca/app/answers/detail/a_id/17378/selected/true
Open the dmg file and you'll see 2 files:
From there, right-click on Install Software and the use Show Package Content option, then you'll see:
Select AiOInstaller from the Contents/Resources folder by doing right-click again and select Show Package Content and you'll see the following files:
From Contents/Packages folder you'll find the Kodak AiO Printer Driver.pkg just run and install it. You should also install the KODAK AiO Bonjour Agent.pkg and some of the rest of the files. This will install the printer driver under Mac OSX Sierra 10.12.6 without any issue.

Once packages are installed, you should be able to select your printer from your system:
Enjoy it!
Issue: Only the scanner doesn't work even when the KODAK AiO ICA Scan Driver.pkg is installed. Still investigating this, but at least, the printer will work as expected!
