When using the printer connected to a device tome of the data in the middle of the line prints as 1 number; however, when comparing to the device display the numbers dont match. When doing a repeat print through the device, the data now mayches. Any potential causes to look at?

Turn off the printer first. Try unplugging the cable between your computer and your printer and re-plugging it back in. Then turn on your printer and hopefully it will allow you to add the printers operating software which is known as a print driver. Good luck !

please check the DATA cable and printer driver installed in the system. these are two things often responsible for junk printing.. what kind of printer iit is ? laser ? inkjet or Dot matrix?

sounds like your heads are all gummed up with dried ink.Is this a older printer or previously used if so run the cleaner that should have come with your printer software. keep running it until clean or bring it to get cleaned.

need to clear the printing query

Wow, serial communications still in use. Naturally, both units have to use the exact same protocol N81 for instance, so make certain the sending unit is set to the same, then check the cable to verify that the appropriate pins are connected and or crossed. I believe your symptoms can be caused by using hardware handshake and having pins 6,8,20 (20 only if a 25pin connector) shorted on the printer end. If possible, you can try switching both devices to software handshake.

there are 3 ways

1.
You can use the USB data cable to transfer data between
the device and a compatible PC or a printer supporting
PictBridge. You can also use the USB data cable with
Nokia PC Suite.
To activate the device for data transfer or image
printing, connect the data cable. Confirm "USB data
cable connected. Select mode." and select from the
following options:
• Nokia mode — to use the device for PC Suite
• Printing & media — to use the device with a
PictBridge compatible printer or with your
compatible PC
• Data storage — to connect to a PC that does not
have Nokia software and use the device as a data
storage device
To change the USB mode, select Menu > Settings >
Connectivity > USB data cable and the desired USB
mode.

2.
Set up a Bluetooth connection
Select Menu > Settings > Connectivity >
Bluetooth and from the following options:
• Bluetooth — Select On to activate the Bluetooth
function. indicates that Bluetooth is activated.
• My phone's visibility — to define how your device
is shown to other Bluetooth devices
• Search for audio enhancements — to search for
compatible Bluetooth audio devices. Select the
device that you want to connect to the phone.
• Active devices — to check which Bluetooth
connection is currently active
• Paired devices — to search for any Bluetooth device
in range. Select New to list any Bluetooth device in
range. Select a device and Pair. Enter an agreed
Bluetooth passcode of the device (up to 16
characters) to pair the device to your device. You
must only give this passcode when you connect to
the device for the first time. Your device connects to
the other device, and you can start data transfer.
• My phone's name — to set the device name for
Bluetooth connections

3. Take off you microSC memory card then read directly to your computer


cheers!

Install its driver. Or in printing que set the lexmark 2600 as the printer to be use. Then test print. Check its data cable.

If this doesn't help leave a comment so we can device another solution

There are a number of parameters for the serial port that have to match the pc. i would print out a config page from the printer via the menu, or power on with the cancel key held. then compare it with the settings on the pc. on the config page you should be looking for things like data bits, host control, parity etc.
