Depending how long you had it sitting without ink it is possible that print head might be ether dirty or plugged. In options of your printer there is an option to clean head and then calibrate. If this does not fix it it is possible that print head is broke. Also depends where you bought ink since i have purchased it before from off brand people like ebay and refiled cartridges and also had issues where it printed fine for few days and then it died.
Hi, have you taken the clear plastic cover off the bottom of the cartridge where the ink comes out of, also remove the cartridges check for this little clear piece of plastic that needs pealing off if this is not on their or you have all ready taken it off then re-insert the cartridges ensuring they are fitted correctly.
Then try printing again and let me know what happens ok
try un-install the software then install again also try using the clean feature on the printer, also are you using genuine ink or copies as sometimes this will cause the problem your having.
If after doing the clean its still no better then the chances are that if the printer worked fine before and it wasnt left a long time without a ink cartridge in then i would say the ink you brought may be damaged could have been standing for a while and blocked the jets the ink comes out of, if you still have reciept take them back and exchange them for more at least this would rule out bad cartridge.
Run the clean function on the printer to clean the heads and nozzles this should then get it printing properly if their is nothing wrong with the actual ink cartridge.
Let me know what happens after doing the clean ok
are you saying you have tried the clean function and printer test page if this still dont print after doing this then i would take the ink back and get some new ink as these may have been stored somewhere hot and made the ink go to like a gel, if the printer was working fine before you replaced the ink the the chances are your printer is fine, try printing a picture and see if it makes any difference just in case their is a blockage doing a picture with black as the main part then this may clear any blockage, if after doing this it still dont work then i would get some more ink and try again.
Let me know ok

The KODAK All-in-One Printer uses an advanced built-in printhead. The system is designed to provide excellent image and text quality, while eliminating the need to purchase new printheads every time you replace ink cartridges, and saving you money. The printing system requires that both the black and color ink cartridges be installed to print. If either cartridge is not installed or is out of ink, the printer or printhead will not print correctly.
Install the color a new cartridge, avoid damage to the print head.
