Kodak hero 5.1 cannot detect paper edge
Bought a Kodak Hero 5.1, full price, two weeks ago, spending an hour on each of our laptops and tablets to get them to talk to each other. Worked like a charm!Then came the rain and the humidity and the message "Unable to detect paper edge" and two hours faffing around and fanning the paper (thx Blondepoison) and not taking a sledge hammer to the darned thing.The shop will take it back in for "repairs" for ten days, but that's not the point, Kodak, is it?Solutions: take it back to the shop and get another brand. Or wait two months for the dry season.
Kodak Easy Share 5500 will not print anything with black in it
Go here:
http://www.kodak.com/go/aiotroubleshooting
Within the tool, select Print quality, then No black, missing text, or text quality.
After answering all the questions (assuming you haven't abused your printhead) you will be prompted to enter a service number, name, and address to be mailed a replacement printhead.
I just went through this and was told my printhead would arrive in 2 to 5 business days.
Home Center will not open...Can't scan
I needed to reload my AiO Home Center software and no one seemed to have the correct procedure. Maybe if you remove & reinstall yours it will resolve your problem. This procedure worked for me on my XP-machine:
1. got to Control Panel/Printers&Faxes and delete the printer
2. go to your Hardware/Device Manager/Universal Serial Bus Controllers, right-click on USB Composite Device and select Uninstall
3. go to Control Panel/Add/Remove Software and remove the EasyShare software
4. disconnect the cables from the Printer
5. download from Kodak.com the program "install_aio.exe"; run the program
(I selected only AiO+EasyShare+Software Updater to load)
6. followed the prompts after the sw installed to reconnect the Printer cables
7. rebooted
WORKED for ME !
My Kodak ESP 3250 won't
Try initiating the scan from the computer, once you plug in the USB cable into your computer, go to My Computer, right click the sanner (should be called something along the lines of KODAK ESP.....) and press scan, then click which program you'll use to scan it, I usually do the Microsoft one, Good luck!!
Printer not printing black ink.. beware the clowns below with spam phone numbers
The problem you are all having is with the print head (The black tray that your ink cartridges sit in).
Most of the time a simple cleaning of this will correct the problem, if it does not then you will have to call Kodak support and they will send you out another print head.
But lets try and see if we can get your troubled one to work again by following these steps...
1 - turn printer on and open the lid as if you were going to change the printer ink cartridges.
2- when the ink tray moves into the center and stops, remove both the black and color cartrdiges from the print head.
3- To remove the print head simply place your left thumb inside the head all the way to the left facing up and pinch the upper left lip of the print head to release it, then pull the entire tray out with your other hand ( there is a release inside the tray above the sticker of a finger and bullseye to the far left in the upper left corner inside the tray)
4- With the tray now removed be sure to look at the bottom and you most likely will find a build-up of black ink... clean this off using DRY paper towel as much as you can.
I used rubbing alcohol but if you do this make SURE it is completely dry before reinstalling.
5- Once you have cleaned the print head reinstall it in reverse fashion than you removed it, if you installed it right you will hear a solid CLICK noise.
6- replace the ink cartridges you removed if they still have ink in them and then close the printer lid.
7- You may get a notice that there is a new printer head and or cartridges and it will want to align and or calibrate the printer...be sure to do this!
8- Once the printer is recalibrated hit the menu tab on the printer and choose " clean ink head"... Do a deep cleaning 2 times!
9- Now try to print something that contains something black like a text document. If it works you are all set, if it did not then you will need a new print head from kodak. simply explain that you did the above steps and it did not work so that you can avoid support trying to run you through all this. They will send you a new one in 2 days.
Hope this helps and good luck!

Kodak 5300 series printer/is not printing black and white that is legiable
There is a known problem with premature failure of the printhead. I called Kodak support at 1-800-421-6699. They will go through a short procedure with you, and then should offer to replace the print head free of charge. After I called (no wait, and an native English speaking operator), I received the replacement in two days.

http://www.dslreports.com > Forums > Electronics
Mecha errors usually refer to a mechanical problem. I would inspect the whole thing for any obstructions, jams, etc. Hello lawsoncl thank you for answering me, I inspected the printer, both on the right and left, there is no obstruction, I opened the upper door and even no obstruction, as I recommend to proceed.
