Kodak ESP5250 All-In-One InkJet Printer - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

This used to happen all the time when I had one. The best thing to do is to completely uninstall the printer and all it's added programs from your computer. Switch off the computer and let cool down (have a cup of coffee) Now reboot the computer and then reinstall the printer and follow instructions to connect via Wi Fi If this works make sure auto update is switched OFF as every time mine was updated your problem occurred. So much for Degreed wonders who try to justify their existence and completely mess up a perfectly sound working system when they don't know what they are doing, shame they never seem to have a brain or any logic.

Try it "with" a cable.

try going to the web site of the company that made your printer and get the print drivers for your machine that way, it will also allow you to get the most updated ones:) Drivers are normally free. Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/normanj_7893313f0751935f

Recheck your error code. Number or dash missing? Kodak code or Mac code?

If you changed the head not much else to do but change out control board. Did you check your software to make sure its not like I do sometimes telling it to only print in blue. You may need a new printer. Reinstall the software before you do anything else. Windows does have a problem of losing printer data. Cant explain but tech guy has told me numerous cases of it.

Go to control panel. Click onto 'printers and devices'. Click on your printer. In there somewhere you will find a place to change language.

using the D-pad on your printer, scroll down the menu until you get to "maintenance" Press OK Scroll down to "clean printhead" press OK The printer will now make some noises and after about 30 seconds will say complete. Now scroll down once more to "Print test page" press OK load paper and press the start button Iff the printed page looks ok...job done. If still faint, repeat the above steps once more.

Easy Solution. Dont buy Kodak. I did and they drove me crazy. I bought a Brother,,,great. and no chips on cartridges to carry out big brother ops.

Inkjet printers need to be used frequently to prevent ink drying out and blocking the print head nozzles. If the print head cleaning maintenance routine does not clear the blockages, then print head needs replacing, but it may be expensive. It may be more cost effective to buy a later model and better printer than replace the print head.

Probably ur printer head

Had the same problem error 3523 that would not clear. Tried Kodak support with no results so took matters into my own hands.Noticed the top tray seemed jammed into the printer. Tried pulling it out but it seemed locked. Flipped the printer over, removed 8 screws, 4 metal plates. Removed bottom tray, set aside. Remove 3 screws for plastic bracket that holds top tray. Move bracket over, be careful not to damage wires. Remove top tray and reinstall so that it is in extended position. There is two notched in the side of the top tray. Extend so that catch is in back notch.Reassemble everything in reverse order. Take care that the top tray does not slide into the printer when you turn the printer over. It did for me the first time that the tray jammed again.Replug everything and startup the printer with top tray extended past bottom tray. The printer will tell you that top tray is jammed, push top tray flush with bottom tray.Printer now works. Don't know why tray jams in the first place but this solution can keep you from scrapping printer or paying for service.Very disappointed with Kodak printer. Obviously printers were not their core business and they paid a sub-contractor to build these products for them. My next printer will be an HP.

changr the encoder strip

Reload the software, if it still won't print replace the printer. The cost of All In Ones is so low that the repair cost will exceeed the cost of the replacement. I go my new Canon free with a rebate.

You need to install the drivers on you new computer. Here is links I came across to allow you to download the proper driver for Windows 7. First one should work fine but just in case I included a second link. If you have any trouble, just ask.Link 1: Click HereLink 2: Click Here

In Windows XP:
Start/Settings/Printers and Faxes
Right click /Properties
Check Port tab
If the printer port connect to USB, install another instance of printer, connected to WiFi

Hi!
Go to Manufacturer's website to download the software driver to your laptop.
Hope this helps.
