Cooooeee .org! Printer trouble :(
 
So mighty orgers can any boffins out there help me with my stupid printer?

I have a Lexmark Z735. This is my second now as I had to replace the old one because of the problem I am now having with this one :(

This is the dialogue box that it comes up with when I try and print something:

Thing is, the printer works, light is on, it feeds paper through fine etc., and when the cable is inserted into the USB port of me laptop it acknowledges it. But when I go to print it just won't! SOOOOO ANNOYING!

With the first printer I went to inquire at a little computer shop and he said it might be the USB cable so I got another but it didn't change anything. Could that be the problem now?

I've got a horrible feeling this is one of those pre-programmed things that apparently mean after a year or so of usage it packs up, I flippin' hope not, now wouldn't be a good time to do so! I bought it on the 6th Novemeber last year :confused:



Cheers in advance for any advice that can be given :)

Try uninstalling the software and driver and re installing. Or stop buying 20 quid printers :)

Have you tried the repair function before uninstalling it and reinstalling it?

download the latest driver from the lexmark website.

tbh, lexmarks always do this.
