Lexmark 6575 Wireless Printing

Hi Guys,
I have just bought myself this shiny new printer and wanted to use it wirelessly.
I can get through the setup and find my network but then when i try and put my wep key in the continue button is greyed out. Its a real pain as I bought the printer as it advertised it would work with the Mac.
Can anyone give me any assistance?
John

Hi Greg,
I thought that too and checked and its definitely the 10 digit one. The funny thing was that I ran the setup under parallels and it took the key fine and works under windows.
Its really annoying as I want both my imac and mbp to be able to print from this printer and the mbp will be wireless.
All the best,
John

Can I airprint to a Lexmark X9575 wireless printer

Can I airprint to a Lexmark X9575 wireless printer, anyoneeeeeeeeeeeeeee?

Do a web search for AirPrint Activator, and you should find useful results for both Mac and Windows computers.
You might also contact Lexmark and ask if they have a solution. Some other-brand printers claim iPad/iPhone compatibility, but the fine print says you have to use their program.
Otherwise, you may be able to use an iPad App like Print n Share.

Lexmark x4850 Wireless Printing isn't working...

Hello,
I have a client with a new Macbook pro and a Lexmark x4850 wireless printer. I found this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8299637
I tried the things people had suggested and can't seem to get anything working. They are using WEP lowest encryption because someone had mentioned that had worked for them. USB works fine but they want to print wirelessly. Lexmark support doesn't mention anything on this issue. I discovered that the "driver" for the Mac also includes the utilities to setup certain things including wireless printing. I tried the software and still, no good.
If anyone can help I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
Dru

Pretty Please?

HT4356 I have a Lexmark pro901 wireless printer, how do I get my iPad to print to it?

I have a Lexmark pro901 wireless printer, how do I get my iPad to print to it? How do I know if I have an iPad or ipad2?

If you have a camera - you have the iPad 2.
Lexmark makes a printing app, but as far as I can remember, you can only print photos with it - however, that may have changed by now.
Look at apps like Print Central, Print Bureau and Print and Share for WiFi printing. You can also download apps like Printopia (Mac) and Print Magic (Windows) that let you use your computer as the print server for iPad printing.

Lexmark 6570 Wireless printing. Can't add printer

Hello,
I have set up a 6570 Wireless printer following Lexmark instructions and installing the soft on the Mac and doing the USB configuration. All good and the printer can connect to the AP and is pingable.
However, the printer is not defined in the Printers System Preferences. If I add it as a remote printer, using eithter lpd, ipp or hp direct, it says OK and defines the printer. However, it is not really defined, as when opening the printer settings and trying to print a test page, the name of the printer does not show up in the window header, it shows the printer icon in black, with a red cross on it and sending the test page results in nothing.
I am not sure how to proceed. I have rerun printer wireless setup, tried to see if it was blocked by the firewall, tried to use "Other printers" instead of the IP printing, but all to no avail.
Anyone knows how to do this ?

I returned my sparkling new Lexmark wireless printer to the store as I discovered that Leopard was not supported, even though Tiger was. I spent a number of frustrating evenings trying to get it working, only to find out from Lexmark Tech Support that I stood no chance. They suggested waiting for a few months for the driver - I didn't. As soon as I heard the news I replaced it with regular, wired printer. It was not a Lexmark one!

Time Capsule and Lexmark S605 Wireless Printing

I have been a happy Mac user for years now and have convinced nearly all of my friends to make the switch. However, I recently a new MacBookPro which was bundled with a Lexmark S605 printer last week and have had nothing but issues...complete opposite of my previous experiences with Apple.
I cannot get this Lexmark printer set up to work over the Wifi connection to my time capsule. Have just updated the time capsule firmware and I still receive the "unable to connect to router" error on the printer (although it does recognize the network in the network list on the printer, it just will not connect). The wifi indicator on the printer is blinking in orange.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? Any help in getting this printer to work on my Wifi network would be much appreciated.
Richard

Have you setup MAC Address access restrictions on your time capsule? If yes your lexmark mac-address can be found opening your printer.
two recommendations:
1) Although the s605 is wireless-n capable it works only on the 2.4 Ghz Band
2) Don't install the Apple Lexmark Update (1 and 2) if you want to use it over wifi. Just install drivers and utilities from lexmark site.
regards

Lexmark 3500 wireless printing?

Has anyone been able to set up a Lexmark 3500 All-in-one with the optional wireless card to work on their Apple network?
I have three Macs, all running OS 10.4 connected thru an Airport Extreme basestation. I purchased the optional wireless card for the Lexmark and installed it according to instructions, but none of the Macs see it on my network.
Am I doomed to be tethered by usb cable!

I don't have that printer, but...
When non-postscript printers have network/wireless included, they usually have a proprietary comm protocol that shows up in the More Printers area. If it's going to work, you'll find something like Lexmark network or Lexmark TCP or something like that.

Lexmark Wireless Printing - Mac OS 10.6 Driver

I have a Lexmark 2420 Wireless printer that I have been using w/Windoze. Just bought a MacNotebook Pro and upgraded to 10.6. Added my printer but the 10.6 driver failed. Installed the Mac version from my Lexmark CD and replaced the driver w/ 10.5 and still no luck. Contacted Lexmark Support and set up chat and was informed of new driver. Unfortunately I no longer have that on my clipboard but you can get it from Lexmark Support. The good news is it works!
Lexmark has a new driver for 10.6. Go to their support and chat.
cycal

Wifi printing w/ OS 10.6 requires Lexmark 10.6 driver that is now available from their tech support.

Trying to Connect Wireless Printer

Seems like a silly question to me...but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do this.
I just bought a Lexmark X6570 Wireless Printer, in hopes that it would wirelessly connect to my Airport Extreme. However, the only printer configurations I see for the Airport Extreme are to actually plug the computer into the Airport Extreme.
Is there any way to add my new printer to the network without physically connecting it to the Extreme?

Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click on Edit in the small window
Click the Base Station menu at the uppermost top of the computer screen up where the Help, File, Window, etc menus appear

Printing problems with Lexmark Wi-Fi printer linked to iMac

We have a Lexmark X6570 Wireless printer. This unit works flawlessly with our MacBook Pro on the AirPort Express Wi-Fi system in the house, whihc was the first Apple computer we bought in September 2007. More recently, in November 2008, we purchased a second Mac, an IMac 24-inch desktop and linked it to the AirPort Express. The problem is that we cannot print via the iMac. Whenever we ask for a print of a Mail message, a Safari web page, an Adobe Reader page, a TextEdit page or a Pages file (when we are actually working on a draft), the application closes by itself and we get the following error message (for the Mail example): "The Mail application had to close unexpectedly. The problem could be caused by the IJPrintQuality module". By the way, the only time the printer actually printed from the iMac was when I open a saved Pages file. Then it prints OK and almost every time. But that is the only instance when the iMac prints from the Lexmark. We have spoken to Lexmark on numerous occasions and reinstalled all drivers and all Lexmark software on the iMac, but without success.

For those running into this same prpoblem, Lexmark foun a solution for me. If you get that error message, try to access your HD -> Library -> Printers -> Lexmark -> PDE's folder. Under that folder, locate the IJPrintQuality, then remove it. Then try to print again. If you get another similar error message, you may also have to remove three other plug-ins: IJAdvancedOptions, IJColorOptions and IJPrinterServices before the programs stops crashing. I am now testing the printing of different documents from different applications, and it continues to work well.

Wireless Printing/Network Issues

Here is our dillemma. We have an iMac running on OS 10.6.8, a Lexmark X4650 wireless printer and a PC. The iMac, PC and work computers and ipads as well as the printer all connect to our network. I can print from the PC but I can't from the iMac. I have reset the printers on the iMac. I have unplugged and plugged back in the modem and router. I have pinged the printer from the iMac, and have found all of the ip addresses, on all devices the first three sets of numbers are all the same, and the last 3 digits are different on each device (printer, pc, imac). When trying to print from the mac, I get the "unable to connect to printer", "device is busy", or "printer is off line".
Any help of information on solutions would be grateful.
Thanks!

Should I be able to use a Lexmark Pro 205 wireless printer from my iPad 1? My iPad can't find the printer. Iveinstalled the Lexprint app on iPad and downloaded the Lexmark Listener on desktop computer. Still can't print from iPad.

Should I be able to use a Lexmark Pro 205 wireless 3 in 1 printer with iPad 1? I have installed the LexPrint app on iPad, downloaded the Lexmark Listener on desktop computer but still can't print from iPad. My iPad cannot find the printer. But I can print from desktop without USB cable. I upgraded the system on my iPad sometime ago. Suggestions??

Here is the list of AirPrint printers, and you particular printer is not on it. So that means you will need to use the Lexmark app, and print through your computer.
There is a Lexmark guy that hangs around these forums who may chime in with a response as well.

I recently replaced my dead airport router with a netgear91-5g router and synced it successfully to my Lexmark Pro 915 printer and my computer and yet when I try to print wirelessly I get the message: "printer not connected; printer offline".

I recently replaced my dead airport router with a Netgear91-5g router and synced it successfully to my Lexmark Pro 915 printer and my computer; yet when I try to print wirelessly I get the message: "printer not connected; printer offline". Lexmark support verified that my printer was connected to the new router and the problem was with the computer's printer configuration and they could reconfigure it online if I paid for their "Premium Support" services ($119 for one year, 3 fixes). I declined, feeling sure that this is something I could do if I knew how. Could it be an incompatability issue with OS 10.8.3?

You saved me $$$ that I can ill afford on my fixed income. I was very unhappy with the "support" from Lexmark... what a rip off! Thank you dwb!

How do I connect my ipad2 to a lexmark wireless printer?? Please help

You will need to install the LexPrint Application on your iPad2 so you can print to your Lexmark printer. Please check this article for more info: Introducing the LexPrint Mobile Print Application. You can also download the LexPrint application by visiting the Lexmark website.
