Kodak ESP 9250 AllInOne InkJet Printer - Page 3 Questions & Answers
Error code: "Printhead carriage jam."
Search inside for anything that should not be there. I found a paper clip, chewing gum wrapper, dust build up, bits of paper, a christmas ornament, all sorts of things can do this. Sometimes very small things. Use a can of compressed air to clean it put well. Hope this helps.
Printerhead loose
Hi. Love Kodak, the printed being loose can only mean one thing the clip is broken. After you removed the ink did you remove the head? If so why? Let's try something, going to look at my Kodak printer. Ok so there is a grey tab that holds the top of the head. They put a bullseye looking sticker in the middle if the head. That's the only place you need to push to secure the head. It should make a clicking sound. If you don't hear that click the tab is broken and the carriage needs tho be replaced cheaper tho buy new. Do a visual check FIRST. Look at the carriage look on the top to see if you see a tab. Could be grey, or green right in the middle of the head. If you don't see it, may be gone. Sorry.
Get the esp 2170 to not print light green instead of black ? I keep on replacing cartridge , to no avail !
replacing a cartridge, while the nozzles are blocked won't help.
Realise the printer will mix there colours to get "black" on the paper. So even a full cartridge, can't make the other colours black till the blockage is gone.
Please try this. If you have ink cleaning fluid, (only for printer ink) use that, if you dont have cleaning fluid, use clean water.
Open the printer as if you replace a cartridge. Remove the black one and look tot the bottom of the cartridge holder. There is a little pipe, where the ink should go in. put some drops water or cleaning fluid in there leave it a few minutes. with a tissue dry it and again insert some drops of water or cleaning fluid. Then put in a cartridge and give the printer a black and white print job. Like print a few A4 papers. Let it print till the black comes back. Can take up to 4 pages A4. I hope this will unblock the nozzles.
Please even if you don't need to print, switch the printer on at least once a week. And even better, let it do a bit of printing every week. This will save a lot of frustration.
