Lexmark X5470 powers on and off constantly

My X5470 has worked fine for years. I had my cable and phone (over cable) go out for 24 hours before it was repaired. When I turned everything back on, my X5470 would trun on... begin the setup cycle.. then turn off and begin the cycle again. I bought a new ac adapter, but, it still does the same thing. Anyone know what this maight be caused by?

I encountered the exact same problem with my Lexmark X5470. After a power failure on Aug 20, the printer would reboot itself every few seconds. I unplugged the power cord and/or adapter for a few minutes and after replugging, it worked fine. However, the problem returns after I power off the printer and then turn it back on, in which case I unplug again for a few minutes. Hope this helps.

X5470 constantly is powering on and off

Please try the steps below:
  1. Re-brick your printer. Pull out the power supply, black box where the power cord is plugged in at the back of the printer.
  2. Disconnect the power cord from the power source. Re-connect after 30 seconds to a different known working power outlet. Bypass any power surge devices or power extensions/strips and directly plug in the cord into the power outlet in the wall.
  3. Re-plug the power supply into the printer.
  4. Press the power button if the printer won't automatically power on.
If the problem continues, please contact Lexmark Technical Support for further assistance. Thanks.

Lexmark x5470 used to work fine and stopped recognizing printing for the windows vista ?

Try to disconnect your printer from your Vista computer. Reboot your computer. Then, unplug and replug your printer into the power source to reset it. When the printer turns on, reconnect your printer into the computer. Doing this usually fixes minor communication issues.

If you mean cable, then it should take a USB cable.

Cannot get my x5470 to 'communicate' with my compaq laptop.

Yes,
but the printer can only be used as a fax machine if the phone line jack on the printer is also connected to the phone line jack on the wall.
