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
page61).
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).
