Question about Computers & Internet

Printer won't print in some softwares but will print in others.

I've tried 2 different printers. I've uninstalled the printers and re-installed them. I've changed printer drivers. The same thing is happening with both printers. I can print in some softwares but not in others. I don't get any kind of error message when it doesn't print. The printer windows respond as if everything went to the printer ok. I've checked the printer que to see if anything is hung. All looks good. I've attached both of these printers to other computers and they print fine. I've even connected to these printers over the network from the "bad" computer and everything will print, just not when they are hooked up directly to this one computer. We are running Windows 2000 SP4 machines on a Windows 2003 Server network.

This type of problem is often caused because recently installed software is incompatable with your current software. If you have installed any software since the printer last worked, try uninstalling this software first (this usually works).

If this does not solve the problem, or you have not installed any new software first run your antivirus/antispyware programs. Make sure that you disconnect your computer from the internet before running antivirus.

If you are still having problems, then preform a system restore. To do this on XP follow these steps:
  • Start
  • All Programs
  • Accessories
  • System Tools
  • System Restore

Hope these solutions help.

Hi.
If you had done utility check and they are fine, had you try printing on a stand alone not using a computer. if you can print on a stand alone, there is no problem on the hardware side of the printer because u were able to print on a stand alone. you can focus now on the software side by uninstalling and re installing the driver of the printer and that should work.

Lexmark z45 not working with windows xp. i installed a lexmark z45 on my laptop that has windows xp and it will not print
Check the printer status:

1 Click Start > Control Panel > Printers and Other Hardware > Printers and Faxes.
2 From the Printers folder, double-click the Lexmark Z45 printer icon.
3 From the Printer menu, make sure:
– Default Printer is selected.
– Pause Printing is not selected.

Check the printer port:

1 Click Start > Control Panel > Printers and Other Hardware > Printers and Faxes.
2 Click the Ports tab.
3 From the list of ports, select the USB printer port. If the USB port is not listed, uninstall and then reinstall the printer software.
4 Click Apply.
5 Click OK.

Make sure you have not installed multiple copies of the printer software:

Windows XP: From the Start menu, click Control Panel Printers and Other Hardware > Printers and Faxes.
In the Printers folder, make sure there is only one Lexmark Z45 printer icon. If you have installed multiple copies of the printer software, uninstall each copy. Then restart the computer and reinstall the printer software.
If the printer port is incorrect or you have installed multiple copies of the printer software, uninstall and then reinstall the printer software:

1 From the Start menu, click Programs or All Programs Lexmark Z45 Uninstall.
2 Follow the instructions on your screen to uninstall the printer software.
3 Restart your computer.
4 Reinstall the printer software

Have you talked with Lexmark Technical Support? I suspect you may have to escalate this beyond level one. Vista on Mac is likely to have issues that differ from other Vista environments.

Printer error message when tried to print test page
You are going to need SP2 to run many applications, doing system restore to before SP2 setup will make SP2 unusable.

If you can install, the printer on a different plug. Uninstall and re-install drivers as suggested on other post, afterward connect printer to new port, drivers will work differently.

You can also try this:

Disconnect printer.

Remove drivers

Uninstall sp2

restart pc

re install SP2

Download and install latest drivers

connect printer

In this way there are less chanches for driver interfeering with sp2. Use last driver version, older drivers may not work well on sp2.

If this had been helpful vote my solution in the other thread. Thanks
