Hi people,
I'm really having trouble installing my lexmark z55 printer and would
be greatful for some help. I have a pretty old laptop without a USB
port, so I'm using the parallel cable. The problem is that during the
install it checks that the cable is connected to the printer. It
doesn't find it. So even though I can contiune the install, it doesn't
work afterwards. The printer is set to use the LPT1 port. I also tried the LPT2, but to
no avail. The USB cable is disconnected. I tried it with a windows xp
laptop and it worked (both with the USB and parellel cables).
Any ideas?
Points:
- The printer is on.
- I'm using the driver supplied with the printer.
- Running Windows 2000
- The port is fine. I tried connecting another printer.
- The cable is fine.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you in advance.
