Make sure that the printer driver you are using is compatible with your version of windows. If so, open all printers in "control panel" and make sure that this printer is the preferred printer and not an old one you might still have installed.

SOURCE: No computer will recognize printer.

Hello.
This can be caused when the internal circuitry of the printer is "scrambled", it can happen in a storm or surge and simply after age.
Unfortunately there is no quick fix other than getting a tech to have a look, but that can be more expensive than a replacement.
You have done the trouble shooting for us and ruled out a cable issue.
Sorry the news was not better. Regards GM

Testimonial: "Thanks... though this news (printer is dead RIP) sucks. =) Thank you for the prompt confirmation of T.O.D."

My Lexmark p4350 won't scan to my computer

I need more information. Have you replaced your cartridges with a non-Lexmark type? Did you try putting the USB cable in a different USB slot? Is the Lexmark power supply working? Did the printer get dropped? Did you try rebooting your system?

Cannot get my Lexmark x7170 to scan.

A quick fix for most communication errors can be achieved by resetting the printer and/or rebooting the PC. Simply disconnect the printer from your computer (if USB connected)> reboot your pc > unplug and re-plug the printer into the power source to reset it. When the printer turns on, reconnect it to your computer (if USB connected). Then try to print again once the computer fully recognizes the USB connection or when the WiFi light on the printer turns solid green (if WiFi connected.).


If that doesn't help, try the steps below:

  1. Disconnect the USB cable connecting the printer from your computer.
  2. On your computer, go to Control Panel > Printers and Faxes.
  3. Delete the Lexmark print object.
  4. Reboot computer.
  5. Re-brick your printer by pulling out the power supply - black box where the power cord is plugged into on the back of the printer, and re-plug after 30 seconds.
  6. When the printer turns on, reconnect it to the computer.
  7. Wait until your computer fully recognizes the USB connection. To check, go to Control Panel > Printers and Faxes. If you see a new Lexmark print object in the list, try to print a document to verify that the problem is fixed.

Can I make a "non-network"

With a USB print server like this one, you can hook your printer to one of the wired ports on your router and it can be accessed by any connected computer. (There are other sources and adapter styles; I just picked this one as a sample. I've installed several of these and it works well.)

You can also share a printer on the network by installing it on a computer as a network printer and enabling printer sharing on that computer. But then that computer will need to be left on all the time for others to access the printer, and if people frequently use the printer it will slow down the computer for whoever is using it.

Lexmark 1270 all in one

First try plugging into a different USB port. I have seen several machines have a port suddenly die for no apparent reason. If that dosent work, try a different USB cable. Assuming the printer is working, the only thing left is either the cable or the port you have it plugged into.
