When last were the cartridges replaced? Faint colors are normally an indication the color cartridges need replacement.

Faint printing

Try unplugging and repluging the printer to the computer.

Make sure the printer settings are correct in the printers properties box in windows (or other system)

Try another USB port and finally uninstall and reinstall the printer ,if it doesn't solve it then it will have to go to a Kodak service center.

Printer is refusing to print colour, with full colour ink tank.

Have you checked the ink levels in your cartridges? Ink can dry due to usage and also due to prolonged non usage.

My printer is printing colour red faintly, the toners are new and genuine. it also takes some times before it starts printing.

Sherry, in all probability it is the "scanner assembly" HP can fix this for $279 in the US using HP Express exchange 1 day ship, this was the result of their active chat. I am having the same problem and am going to dismantle the printer myself to see if I can't clean the scanner mirror myself. If you search the following words on google you will find some info, fading red tones laser jet 2605, one of the first results is a page on the HP site specifically on laserjet printers. I wish I had a quick fix that would help; however, a new cartridge won't help!
