On two different occasions now, we've had a problem with grounds in our cup. Happened several weeks ago and I decided I just had a bad batch of kcups, Haven't encountered the problem again until yesterday. First my husband experienced a cup full of grounds, made a second which was ok. Then I made mine - first cup full of grounds, second ok. And today it happened again. I'm using a new box of 80 k cups, so really hope it's something small with the machine and not the coffee!

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.
It appears you have a bad batch in that group, take it back and let them deal with this, and I would consider taking your money back or go with a different brand and model.
try a system restore that will bring the laptop back to an earlier time before this happened, if successful your settings should restored. Why did this happen? bad download, a bad device driver, or program compatibility.
For anyone who still has this issue including above morris_gray, I've encountered this myself with my first generation M-Audio Axiom 25 USB MIDI Controller plugged into a MacBook using GarageBand (G2 apparently has identical malfunction). It should be noted that I never installed any type of software for the device, that came with the device. I simply wanted a controller for GarageBand, and I will also note that it has worked flawlessly for about 4 years on this setup, until about a week ago...
I'll provide what information I have gathered about the blank LCD screen issue as well as the controller simply not functioning correctly as listed below: The most common way people test/fix this is to "hard reset": - turn controller off (assuming you've kept the usb cable connected to your computer) - hold down both the + and - buttons directly below the lcd, and simply turn the power on. Some numbers should appear on the lcd soon after the reboot and you are okay to release said buttons... I've read testimonials, watched videos of people doing this and successfully getting their device back in action, though the reset will default anything you have saved for the device.
Sadly, this did not work on mine. I've tried several different cables- in several different usb ports- on several different computers (as suggested by M-Audio on their support page. I still get a lit up but blank lcd. I've even tried to still use it but only some awful noises come out and nearly every function just makes the thing freak out and it becomes silent/unusable/useless. M-Audio suggests sending it back to them for fixing at this point. Because I've had my Axiom 25 Gen. 1 for so long and I have never installed anything what so ever that came in the box, and have little faith that M-Audio will replace mine, I will most likely try to take it apart and mess around with the electronics inside as it's just a big paperweight now. I did read that in the Gen. 1's the blank lcd could be a result of a chip gone wrong, so to speak... Gen. 2's had some type of "grounding" issue that resulted in the blank lcd and such. I hope this helps anyone, if I stumble upon a way to fix this through my own curiosity I will inform the masses... I'll be on the hunt for a new controller most likely and it probably wont be an M-Audio...not that I'm upset with the product, it lasted me quite a while and I've made a lot of solid songs/music with it, but rather I feel the need for something different and maybe a little more sturdy that can actually be a synthesizer on its own, not just a controller. - Christoffer
That could be gears or the motor or the connector to the mixer head etc. Since this is two weeks old I wouldn't even worry about what just take it back and get a replacement. Even the new kitchenaids are very good and very realiable after years of use and abuse. Abuse is something like Dad I tried making sand from some rocks. Still worked after that btw.
You just got a bad unit which from my experience has been pretty rare. It will be under warranty so just get it replaced and enjoy the new one for years to come instead of worrying about this one.
I have the answer because it is happening to me now. Moreso with the Timmothy's brand K cups. I did a little forensics on a good brew, and then on two slow with grounds in the final brewed coffee.
The inner filter is placed in the k cup and it is not glued to the top rim. The bag then just sits on the bottom of the k cup as it is passed with the hot pressurized water.
The good cups are glued to the top rim and there is no problem.
To investigate....remove the foil top carefully after the cup cools. Rinse out the grounds, and the filter bag should still be glued to the rim. if you've got a dribbler and one that passes the grounds into the cup...you will find the filter bag had fallen loose from the rim. Manufacturer defect...You bet!!!
I had 8 from a box of Timmothys 25 count pass grounds. Green mountain coffee may once in a while pass grounds, but very rare and maybe three times in the 4,000 k-cups we've used.
