Kodak Printer drivers ESP7 ESP5250

[selldoor]

Long time no post!!
However I need help with a Kodak Printer Kodak All in One Easyshare ESP7. or an ESP 5250 but happy to try anything.

Some years back I got these two printers off freecycle and one came with new cartridges In sealed box ( fit both printers)
I have just got round to trying to get them working and find that Kodak gave up on personal printers
and will not even look at any queries since 2012 !!

The printhead on the ESP 7 was dried out but I am gradually getting that unclogged, so working on the main problem
which is that drivers are hard to find. They show up in a few places as aio.install.exe and it goes through the motions
of downloading and installing but then fails saying I have a network problem. ( I have seen this mentioned elsewhere so dont think I have.)

Inks and chips and refill instructions are still available.

So can anyone help me with the drivers for Win7 or LOL Win10 or Win11
either as a file or a link to where I can find them. TIA

Managed to power up an old PC that runs on win7 that I only use to back up pics.
Plugged the printer in and it found it imediately and started searching for drivers. First it came up as a camera ? then 5 minutes later decided
it was a scanner. ( That worked great ) maybe 10 minutes or so it decided it was an AiO ( allinone) Printer and it appears to work though the print output still needs some work.
Colour is not too bad but Black is barely there. So I am fixed. If I can extract the drivers I will add them to the post. I have also enquired here: https://www.freeprinterdriverdownloa...river-request/
So will post their reply.
