Pc says in the message that cannot contact the printer but on the printers shows Lexmark 3300 Series I have the disk but says doesn't have the software. I have a All-in-One 3350 and PC has Vista with the prevoius PC (XP windows I had no problem)

Give it a good clean right through, including the print head with an appropriate material such as isopropyl. . Disconnect it from your PC, uNINSTALL THE SOFTWARE. Do a disk clean up and a disk defragmentation procedure,. Restart the PC and reinstall the software, that should clear the fault

Have you confirmed that the power source is pumping out the correct voltage/amps with a voltmeter, too? I'm assuming you meant that you verified the power outlet works?

Try this approach instead. On your computer, go to Start menu > Programs > Lexmark 3300 Series folder > Tools > Uninstall. Your computer will then start the uninstall process. After successfully uninstalling the printer software, reboot your pc when prompted.
When your computer turns on, re-install the printer driver. Please visit the Lexmark website to download the Lexmark 3300 Series printer driver on your computer. Use the Vista driver for Windows 7. Select the corresponding driver for your operating system version. Simply follow the instructions on your computer screen to complete the installation.

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. 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. Then try to print again once the computer fully recognizes the USB connection.

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

1. Disconnect the printer from your computer.

2. Re-brick your printer. Pull out the power supply, black box where the power cord is plugged in at the back of the printer, and put it back after 30 seconds.

2. On your computer, go to Control Panel > Printers and Faxes.

3. Delete the Lexmark print object.

4. Reboot your pc.

5. When your pc turns on, reconnect the printer.

6. Wait until your pc 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, then try to print a document again to verify that the problem is fixed.

You may also try to update your printer driver by visiting the Lexmark website at http://bit.ly/ffZS77. Select your operating system, download and execute the file.

If the problem continues, please contact Lexmark Technical Support Center for additional assistance.

The 1102 error message is caused by a communication failure between one of the cartridges and your printer. Please visit the Lexmark website and refer to this article on 1102 Error Message on the Lexmark P4300 Series All-In-One. If you need additional assistance, please contact Lexmark technical support.
Hope this helps.

Thank you.........

I think the problem is that lexmark never made this printer mac os compatible. I have one and the disk it came with was for windows only, while i have a 3300 series and that came with a disk for both windows and mac.
