Lexmark Z700-P700 printing problems with Windows 7

jonathanbrown · Nov 11, 2013

My Lexmark Z700-P700 printer was working with my Windows 7 PC up until last week - now I can't get it to work, despite uninstalling it and reinstalling it multiple times. Any suggestions?

Is it making all of the usual printing noises yet spewing out just blank pages? If yes, that indicates a severe ink blockage in the printer nozzles. After a few days of non-use, some inkjet printers suffer from blocked nozzles as the old ink turns from liquid to paste as it dries out.

Phillip Corcoran :

No - the print jobs aren't even showing up in the print queue - so I don't think it's the printer itself but rather a driver/compatibility issue that is new between the printer and Windows 7.

But thanks for taking the time to reply.

"but rather a driver/compatibility issue that is new between the printer and Windows 7"

So what's new then? Whatever it was can't have changed itself. Have you updated the printer driver to a new version perhaps?

If yes, roll the driver back to the previous version in "Devices & Printers".
Don't ever update any driver if the existing one is working okay.
