Kodak ESP 7250 All-in-One InkJet Printer - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

under warranty get help from a warranty call from an authorized service agent

If the printer is not connecting to the wireless router, you need to address that problem first. It wasn't clear from your problem description whether or not that is the case. If the printer is getting a successful wifi connection then you may need to delete the printer from your PC and re-add it.

Hi, Possible, there's windows 8 Drivers on the Kodak website (short link: http://j.gs/13861611/windows-8-drivers)

Defective cartridge.

Open "my computer" and search for files created in the last 7 days. This should find them for you.

I figured it out. If you are low on (25%) on either colors or black, then it won't print. Even if you load a new black cartridge and it reads as 100% black, it won't print because it will only print when BOTH cartridges have been replaced and reads 100%. Same thing happens reversed with color being replaced. So basically, ALL printers short you 25% ink and FORCE you to buy their ink more often. Kodak is no exception. I have 100% black and 25% color and a BW only needed text paper won't print. I been through this before. *facepalm*

click on start, devices and printers. right click on printer image, click on trouble shoot, follow instructions.

if the ink is new then you will have to run a head cleaning program on the printer ( did you remove the sticker from the top of the new inks )

get a new printer

Try uninstall then reinstall printer software. If you still have the problem check ink levels, then fi not printing selwct another printer port.

If you mean that you upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 8 then there should be an option for it to run under the previous operating system. In Windows 7 you just had to right click on the printer icon. It will then mention compatiablity. I don't know if it's the same in Windows 8. You can also go to the Microsoft website for more help.

There may be a dirty sensor in the paper path...but most likely there is a tiny piece of paper still jammed somewhere that is difficult to see or access.

you do not give hx such as was it once connected but power went out, or have new router, etc... have you walked through the directions starting on page 6 on the manual at this link: http://resources.kodak.com/support/pdf/en/manuals/urg01130/ESP_7200_xUG_GLB_en.pdf

this is will take several exchanges to troubleshoot. when did it last work? any lightening storms, is it on a surge protector or UPS? can you test the voltage if there is a power supply in the power cable? when u unplug and plug back in any clicks or lights on the printer? same question when you press power.

This problem has plagued me for a very long time. The issue is that the printer head is "glued" in the resting position under the guard of the printer, so you can't remove the ink cartridges to clean it. Solution is to (I know this sounds stupid, but it works) turn the printer on the side where the printer cartridges are (if they are stuck on the left side, turn the printer on its side so the cartridges are on the bottom). Turn the printer on, and the cartridges magically start moving! I guess there are some sensors that get tricked out when you tip the printer on its side. If the cartridges are still stuck, click the "ok" button, and before it gets a chance to see if you actually fixed the problem, turn the printer off using the power button. It takes a long time, but you should see the ink trap lower (release the ink cartridges) and the ink cartridges start moving to prepare for shutdown! Grab the cartridges when they move out of their hiding place and don't let them go back until you clean the print head so it doesn't get stuck again. Remove the ink cartridges, then push the grey tab to release the print head. Wipe the bottom of the print head clean with rubbing alcohol (it will have a lot of gooey - sticky ink stuck on the bottom). I used nail polish remover since I didn't have rubbing alcohol available. You can also wipe down the ink pad which is where the ink cartridges were previously jammed to clean up more of the mess and prevent this sort of thing happening again too soon. Good luck!

I would guess that you have a setting that specifies the top tray to use. You should look at the printer settings menu and change it to the one you want.

I usually find the answer is to reload the printer prog. Better still access company website and download latest full up date.

try to clean contacts and reinstall also

are the ink cartridge you are using refurbished because sometimes the printer wont read them had a simular prob with my printer you might have to just buy new ones for it
