If the above doesn't work then the little electronic board/head is defective - grab a new cartridge. Once you do this consult your manual for replacing ink cartridges - re-install the (in this case black) cartridge and turn a test print (bonus: set your printer to b&w only so not to burn up your color ink - drop a small photo into a word processing document.) I've worked with 7 feet+ inkjets in graphics design shops in the past, each morning I used this technique to prime heads esp during weather changes.
Once you do, use a dry part of the paper towel and blot it dry, do not scrub. You should start seeing the ink flow onto the paper towel. 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. 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. 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.
I've ran into the same issue with several of my customers. Shake them up well before installing them. They have the Kodak logo somewhere on their exterior.#1 mistake made when replacing cartridges. Kodak printers are commonly white, black, or silver, but they do come in a variety of other colors. Kodak printers vary in structure depending on their included features, but they all have a few key components: a paper tray, control panel, and paper storage bin. Kodak printers are box-like in structure and designed to sit on a desk or tabletop. Today Kodak is headquartered in Rochester, New York and sells cameras, printers, scanners, smart home devices, and more worldwide.Īmong the printers sold by Kodak are color printers, black and white printers, wireless printers, and portable photo printers. In 2013, the company shifted gears toward selling imaging technology for businesses. Kodak began to undergo financial difficulty, resulting in the company filing for bankruptcy protection in 2012. Interestingly enough, the company decided to drop the project so it didn’t compete with their main business: film photography. In 1975, Kodak developed the first handheld digital camera. The company dominated the photographic film industry during the majority of the 20th century. Kodak started out as an analog photography company in September of 1888 when it was founded by George Eastman and Henry Strong.
