Several things could cause a printhead jam. Check to make sure the bar is clean and that no pieces of any stick on labels are stuck to the wrong places, next, make sure your cartriges are properly seated, if all else fails, you can see if the print head can move at all or if it seems to be sticking to the steel bar that holds the print head. if the print head is sticking to the bar, DO NOT OIL THE BAR. you can place a drop of lighter fluid on each side of the print head to lube the bar. There is a bronze bushing in the print head and it will absorbe oil and lighter fluid is a very fine cleaner lub. But do remember that it is also very flammable.

If possible see if you can reach inside the printer and try to release the cartridge as if you were going to change one that was empty with a full one. If you can not get it free, try and remove all of the printer cartridges and see if that helps. Jams are usually cause by the cartridge not being seat properly. Good Luck.

try to clean contacts and reinstall also

Contated Kodak about the error code 3527 and was advised I needed to purchase another printer and they would give me a 30% discount. Why would I do that when my Kodak printer is only 14 months old! My Dell is 9 years old and works fine! Dell ink cartrides are expensive and can only be ordered online. That is why I switched to Kodak. Do not buy Kodak!

Open the printer access door and clear any obstructions. Check that the printhead and ink cartridges are installedcorrectly. (The printhead and ink cartridges are installed correctly when youhear them click into place.)

To resolve this error:

1. Open the printer access door.
2. Disconnect the power adapter from the printer.
3. Gently hold both sides of the carriage, located immediately behind the printhead, and make sure the carriage moves freely.
• If the carriage does not move freely, contact Kodak.
4. Remove the printhead and ink cartridges.
5. Reinstall the printhead and ink cartridges, making sure each clicks into place.
6. Connect the power adapter to the printer.
7. Turn the printer on, if necessary.
8. Close the printer access door.

If the error continues, contact Kodak.

Hello,

It means it has "paper jam"error message. This is a common issue w/ the ESP printers of Kodak especially if its brand new.


Try the steps below.


1.Open the printer access door.
2.Remove the black and color ink cartridges.
3.Reseat the printhead.

a. Lift the printhead release latch
b. Reseat the printhead, pushing firmly on the white label on the printhead (if provided) or the center of the printhead, until it clicks into place.

NOTE: You may also visit www.kodak.com/go/printheadsupport for demonstration on reintalling the printhead

4. Close the access door.
5. wait for the printer to initialize.

If issue persists, the printer itself needs to be replaced. Call 1.800.421.6699

Thanks
