Same thing have to turn Lexmark x6170 off and back on to continue printing after 1 page. When I open printer queue it says deleting forever until printer power off back on. Using newest Lexmark site drivers for Vista. Also should tell you it worked fine in XP problem after installing Vista. Going back to XP is not an option.

Started having same issue with X6170 & Vista laptop. This problem of the page not deleting out of queue started within last month or so. This printer had been working fine with Vista before this for several months.

I've attempted reinstall of current drivers & other optional software settings. It still intermittenly, freezes deleting page in queue.

Since it is a recent problem, possibly a recent Vista update is wreaking havoc with Lexmark's shoddy drivers?

Not only do I have that same issue, but my scanner has stopped working. I have the latest drivers for Vista. I can print, but only one page at a time. I've found that an easier way to get around it other than rebooting your pc is to turn off the pinter, then clear the print queue then turn the printer back on again. This usually clears it out for me. However, I have expenses that I NEED to scan and that has recently stopped. It won't scan into any format I've tried e.g. reader, word, email, etc. Not only do I have that same issue, but my scanner has stopped working. I have the latest drivers for Vista.

I have the same problem. 10 page doc must be printed one page at a time. Turn printer on/off after every page is printed. I have the same problem. 10 page doc must be printed one page at a time. Turn printer on/off after every page is printed.

I have the same problem with my X6170 and Windows Vista. I don't think it's a memory problem because it occurs with a simple text only email, Excel spreadsheet, anything with more than one page. The previous print job in the queue is not being deleted. It keeps showing as in the delete process but the previous spooled print job never disappears until you turn the printer off and on. I definitely have the most recent drivers. What a pain! I have the same problem with my X6170 and Windows Vista.

Same problem here using the X6170 and Vista. The dos commands: net stop, start etc works but not always, even my PC stopped once and occasionally the print icon hangs (right below on the desktop).
I have had several times contact with the technical guy (4years at Lexmark) and he gives up. Lexmark does not have a solution. It is definately a driver problem but they will not make a propper Vista driver (scan driver was already too much effort).
