Hostel 3 in my opinion given the chance will keep you watching beyond the half hour point.

I now think I've found out what the problem actually is with Kodak printers that stops you from printing in B/W. It's the print tray or rather the delivery system that supplies the black ink to the paper. I bought an aerosol of compressed air from the local £1 shop and sprayed it as accurately as possible through the ink receptors and ended up covered in black ink. The printer worked fine after that but I've since noticed the black print starting to fade somewhat again after only a couple of months. Sounds like an inbuilt flaw to make us buy new printers every 18 months, lol. Hope that helps.

Ernest Biggins is spot on!! Same problem with ESP 7 using Windows 8.1 64 bit. Downloaded aio_install from Kodak which included drivers. Uninstall Kodak AiO software program, unplug usb cable to printer, and shut off computer.

Restarted computer. Ran aio_install.exe with usb cable disconnected from computer. The program will prompt you when to connect usb cable. Runs like a champ!! Thanks Ernest!! Incidentally, When I checked the properties for the printer there was a yellow triangle. Checking drivers, it stated there was not an available driver for the printer.

The clogged printhead is unclogged and has been working fine for a few days now. Probably about 20 pictures. Hot water was the answer. Fill a cup to the brim with hot tap water. Carefully hold the printhead in the water (just the printhead portion which is about 1/8' thick) and swish it around for a few seconds. I held it in the water for about 20-30 seconds or so. With the ink cartridges in it let is sit on a damp pad of paper towels for a couple hours.

Put it back in the printer and clean the printhead. Let it sit for an hour or so and then print the calibration sheet. Then print some pictures to use all the nozzles. Ditto here, but this solution did not help. Brand new cartridge and the same happened.

When i tried this hot water solution it looked like it was kick starting the black ink but i tried more and it made no difference. Its winter-y here now but my office remains above 16 degrees C overnight so i cant see it being a temp issue(?) Are people recommending tried it on different computers to the same printer so dont think its a software issue. No issue in the printer properties its trying to print black because there are 'stabs' at it. Just off the phone with Kodak. Mine were kodak cartridges not after market so i qualified for the loyalty program.

Apparently after all this it needs a new printer head, which i cannot find. They didnt recommend buying a cleaning kit. Once you've tried cleaning the heads in the software and it hasn't worked then it needs new print heads. They are about £25 on amazon but no-where has them in stock, kodak themselves dont have them either, probably because the printer is old. If you can get them to work through warm water (i couldnt) i imagine you're probably cleaning the print head in the printer which is what may be fixing the issue because i dont think its the cartridges.

It happened to a cartridge in mine that was only a few months old and then immediately to a brand new cartridge that i had bought a few months ago and kept in the drawer unopened. Unless someone is going to tell me that you can't store them which is pretty useless to me. Will keep hunting for replacement print heads. #1 mistake made when replacing cartridges. Shake them up well before installing them. I've ran into the same issue with several of my customers.

95% of the time they are using off-brand inkjet cartridges that are cheaply sold -- and even when they do work, the circuitry typically fails within a few months. On trick for ink cartridges is to heat up a cup of water in the microwave -- not boiling, but about as hot as you can stand to sip a cup of tea or coffee. Next, twist the end of a paper towel and stick it into the water then DAB, do not rub, DAB the cartridge where the ink flows out -- without wetting the little circuit board.
