Q: I have a Lexmark x1240 (I freakin hate it) But my mom wont buy me a new one, and right now, i can only access the scanner by goin to my computer and clicking on it, but i cant print, and i cant copy...wtf is wrong?
A: I have to agree. Reinstall the drivers and tell your Mom that Lexmarks are the bottom of the barrel, in the printer line. If reinstalling doesn't work, it may be that your print heads are clogged. Does your printer do anything when you tell it print or copy? If it acts like it wants to print, but doesn't put any color on the page, then you may want to run a test page/nozzle check, do 3-4 head cleanings and then run another test page, to verify if any ink is getting through the print heads. It may take several head cleanings before they are completely clean. If this turns out to be the case, then tell your Mom that you are probably going to use a lot of ink and it would be cheaper to buy a new printer with FULL ink cartridges, then pay the price for Lexmark inks. Top performers: Epson, HP, Canon. You can also try a head alignment, if your printer is trying to print.
