have you tried a new printhead? you can get them on amazon or ebay for about $18. got one recently for my printer and it prints like new. if you're thinking about a new printer though - go for it. this kodak is a pain in the ass.

I removed the ink cartridges, and then I removed the printerhead. I used rubbing alcohol and a soft clean cotton rag and wiped out the printerhead, along the roller inside and the bottom pins of the ink cartridges....

set it out in the yard, and hose it off real good with your garden hose. Then wrap it in a clean trash bag, throw it it out, and buy yourself an Epson, because the Kodak is junk. I've had nothing but trouble out of mine.

I am just getting ready to clean mine as well. In looking over the instructions it is suggested to use a pipe cleaner, or feather duster and/or a vacuum to get the loose dirt and dust out.

Try taking out the battery..I have had that happen before with my other Kodak cameras, but it was only temporary..I just fiddled with it until it worked. Some times the lens gets stuck...hopefully you won't have to get a new one.

I took all of my toners out & used a paint brush to lightly clean both sides of the drum... Also be sure to calibrate the cartridges...

I have this camera, and the dust problem is for real. I'm trying to fine a solution.

I checked this problem out prior to purchasing this camera. Found this YouTube video on cleaning the dust off the sensor. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_sP4yLf6lA Pretty common problem, easy solution.

As there is no disc/software as with the Kodak, just convert them to jpegs ( in a seperate iPhoto file/so you don't get the lower res photos mixed up and you should be good to go.

Use any eraser, it works great. Prior to shooting apply a thin layer of vaseline, helps the dirt/grime/lead come wipe off

Sorry I cannot assist you with that. My Kodak 2170 is the worst purchase ever. It never worked correctly and I gave up trying to use it after about nine months.

time and ease. I used a few Mr. Clean Magic Erasers and had cleaner wax to rub it off. Good luck.

If you are getting dust in that short of time frame, you are probably not changing your lenses carefully enough. Always keep the body lens side down, turn off the camera and then change lenses. I've got over 50k shutter releases on my D700 and have only had to clean the sensor once. In the mean time get a blower (Giotto's) and use that to blow the dust from the mirror chamber.

Close up the case and lock it and just rinse and soak the outside of the case with water and store opened. If the case was used in salt water you may want to soak it for a hour to dissolve all the salts off the case. Do not really need to clean the inside the camera case especially the area where the lens of the camera faces. If the seal is still moist with the grease leave it. Take a qtip to remove any debris on the seal if required. If seal is dry add drop of that oil/grease to relube the seal.

Definitely not! Clean only the outside lens and eyepiece, NEVER anything inside the camera. You can look up other tools to clean inside the camera.

The manual is still available on line from Kodak. I would suggest that you buy a newer more up-to-date camera.

I had to clean the cartridges and the printer slots to get it to work. Really clean them too, not just wipe it off with a towel. I used alcohol swabs and paper towels to dry everything

The print heads periodically self-clean. I have not done anything other than dust the outside of the unit.

I smacked mine a couple of times on the side of the lens took an air can and blew in all the cracks and crevices, Put electronic endust on a lens cleaning tissue and forcefully pulled the telephoto lens out gently while pushing on the extension button and wiped it all clean several times. Even ran the tissue a ways into the crevice surrounding the lens. Somehow it started working again which thrilled me since Ehow wanted $176 just to look at it if I would send it in. It still sounds a little scratchy but I will continue cleaning it every use. It sounds like it has a minute piece of sand or something in it. Hope this will work for you.
