Trying to print, the paper light flashes red, screen on camera says to add paper. Take cartridge out, add paper. Put back in, push print, it makes some noise then the paper light flashes red again and the screen says add paper. And so on. I take cartridge out, replace. Nothing helps. Maybe I'm not getting the stupid cartridge seated but if not, I'm not sure how to do it.
Actually I was using printer paper but it wasn't Kodak. I guess it was too thick. Anyway, I switched the paper out and it worked well again. Thanks for your help.Actually I was using printer paper but it wasn't Kodak. I guess it was too thick. Anyway, I switched the paper out and it worked well again. Thanks for your help.

The Attention light is flashing red.
Solution The printer requires attention. Try the following:
* If the printer is connected to a computer, check the computer screen for
instructions.
* If you are printing a CD label on a CD/DVD, insert the CD/DVD holder in the
CD/DVD tray now.
* If you have a digital camera connected to the printer, check the camera screen
for instructions.
* If the printer is not connected to a computer, check for the following problems:
- Main cover open
- Out of paper
- Paper jam
- Print carriage jammed or stuck
- Print cartridge missing or inserted incorrectly
- Print cartridge tape not removed
- Incorrect print cartridge installed
- Packaging materials are not removed
* If you are unable to solve the problem by using the instructions above, turn off
the printer and unplug the printer power cord. Wait 10 seconds, and then plug
it in again. Turn on the printer.
I hope this will help you :)

Cancel button Print cartridge status light Resume button and light Power button and light
- If the power light is flashing it means that your printer may be receiving data. - If the resume light is flashing you may be out of paper, or you may have a paper jam, you may be printing a two sided document by hand and the first side has finished printing. - If the print cartridge status light is flashing that means the top cover may be open, of there may be a problem with one of the cartridges. - If all of the lights are flashing the printer may need to be reset.
with regards to the status of the lights., its either the cartridges that you installed is not recognized by the printer's print head or cartridges are defective. try these steps: if all the inks are new take them out and get an eraser and rub the small chip gently so as to clean the contacts of the chip ( don't touch it with your finger ) reinsert the cartridges in the printer and allow it to charge.
Please see your manual for the meanings of the green and red printer lights, and how to load paper and change ink cartridges. If you do not have a copy, you may download it from here:
There is also a self-help troubleshooting guide there which is very useful.
The blinking red light means you have a cartridge which needs replacing. Right click the little printer icon in the bottom left corner of the screen and select printer settings, then maintenance then replace cartridge.
ON your driver check that the paper size is correct and this most commonly occurs when the incorrect paper size is selected. For example if you are printing to A4 and you have letter size installed in the machine then the system will cause an error or jam when there is nothing there.
Also within word or which ever program you are using on the document goto file and then down to page setup once in there check the paper size make sure it's correct for the paper in your machine also check the paper source. Once you have done this check the paper tray guides are correctly against the paper turn on and try printing and hopefully this will work.
