No color my 5150 is not printing anything in color and has new black and color ink

I figured it out. If you are low on (25%) on either colors or black, then it won't print. Even if you load a new black cartridge and it reads as 100% black, it won't print because it will only print when BOTH cartridges have been replaced and reads 100%.
Same thing happens reversed with color being replaced.
So basically, ALL printers short you 25% ink and FORCE you to buy their ink more often. Kodak is no exception.
I have 100% black and 25% color and a BW only needed text paper won't print. I been through this before. *facepalm*

There are very few things you can do, other than what you have aleady done.
I would recommend a decision on how much the unit cost and how long you have used the
printer vrs. what HP or a local authorized service center would charge to repair it.
If you have refilled ink cartridges, this is problem that can arise due to ink drying on the
print head as the black cartridge is use the most.

check if the cartridge is ok. maybe the color cartridge has a ......?

I have to ask this question of you, just to make sure this is not an issue. Are you using a factory new ink cartridge?
Please consider the following:
If you are using a refilled or third party cartridge that may well be your problem. Most manufacturers build logic into their products to prevent the use of “Other Equipment Manufactured” cartridges as well as re-filled cartridges.
They do this to prevent problems from contaminated inks causing problems with print quality or damaging the physical printhead.
If you are using factory new cartridges, then please call the manufacturers Technical Support for assistance with the warranty on the cartridges

Аs far as I remember this printer can printing with only one cartridge inside it.Just pull out the color cartridge and try print in black only mode.

Lexmark 5150 I don't know where the ink is ???

Yes, unfortunately you do. There is a sensor that makes sure that there is a cartridge installed in both locations.

Good Luck!

If is an original brand? Some generic cartridges or refill ones gave that problem.

sure..remove the software

need head cleaning , check your option color or black , adjust in maximum color , mostly some printer there many option.
