If it was a Kodak picture maker. they are quite old technology (ours is
about 7 years old now), and will kaak on anything over about 1 mb.
If it was a CT-1 counter top unit that interfaces with an RA-2 digital
printer, depending on what it is networked to, a file larger than 20mb would
make it kaak (my machine), or as small as 8mb might make it refuse the file.
Without knowing what you were trying to plug into, it's hard to say what
went wrong.

It wasn't a Kodak picture maker. It was sat on the counter. I did try asking the assistant but was met with a blank stare, so never did find out why it wouldn't read the files. They would probably be around the 2Mb mark each. I can't imagine many customers taking in a CF card with images bigger than 8Mb each on it. I think I've seen the same console at Costco.
