Can Not Detect Lexmark Z603

[bluepearl]

The printer suddenly stopped working last time giving error "printer image not correct"
Tried many uninstalls-reinstalls
Tried driver update
XP is not detecting it only
Anybody?

I'd hate to say this but many problems come when the usb cord is pulled out slightly. try unplugging printer from computer uninstall drivers, reboot reinstall and you should be prompted to plug in the printer. is the spooler service running (either look in task man, or services.msc), when it is installed and you open 'printers & faxes' (control panel) is there a check next to the lexmark?

hmm the usb cord for the printer might be damaged then, if you try a different usb port you should get a prompt "found new hardware" if not you may need to buy a new usb cord

Dude, if you notice any problems with the USB controllers, then reinstalling the USB/Motherboard drivers is the only answer to it. As far as the pen drive is concerned. It doesnt' require much power from your USB port. Hence problems as such might not affect your pendrive.

Try updating or reinstalling the motherboard USB drivers
