Picture will not print

A selected picture does not print.

Probable Cause 1

The image file may be corrupt.

Corrective Action

Review the picture on the camera or computer and delete it if necessary.

Probable Cause 2

The image file may not be in JPEG format.

Corrective Action

The Kodak printer can print only JPEG files in stand-alone mode. Connect the printer to a computer and use software to print other image formats.

Poor print quality

Probable Cause

Low resolution image file or the printer may need maintenance.

Corrective Action

Align the printhead (see “Monitoring and adjusting the printer's performance” on page 61).

Perform a nozzle check with the Home Center software.

Clean the printhead from Home Center, or from the Maintenance menu on the printer control panel. If the printhead is clogged, the printouts should begin to improve with two or three cleanings. Repeat the cleaning cycle until the printout stops improving.

If the problem still persists, you may need to replace the printhead (see “Replacing the printhead” on page 65).
