Lexmark printer says "a component required for printing is missing."

hi, im new to this forum so bear with me.
i use a lexmark x5470 printer and it worked fine for the past few years and suddenly it says, "Missing component: /Library/Printers/Lexmark/Drivers/.Resources/5400 Series Color 1.lut"
i just refilled the ink cartriges and it printed out the test paper (whenever you refill the cartridges it automatically prints the test page), so my printer definitely works, it just cant print out the files from my macbook.
i havent re-installed or installed my printer because i don't have the installation disc or anything of the sort.
any help would be appreciated.

So is that file it wants there?
/Library/Printers/Lexmark/Drivers/.Resources/5400 Series Color 1.lut
In the finder, select Go menu, Go to Folder... menu item.  Then enter (or cut/paste) /Library/Printers/Lexmark/Drivers/.Resources/ and click the Go button.  The Drivers/.Resources folder will open in the finder.  See if 5400 Series Color 1.lut is in there.  I'm guessing it's not.
I did some google searching for that X5470 printer and found a page to download it's support files and found this page.  Then I clicked "change OS" and selected Macintosh and 10.6 from the popups on that page and clicked Filter.  It brought up a link to support code to download; Lexmark 5400 Software support for Mac OS X 10.6.  I downloaded that suff and took a look at it and it will install the requisite 5400 Series Color 1.lut file (among other stuff) in the proper place.
Here's the direct download link.

  • Hi, I couldn't download apps on my iPad 1. It say iOS update required for this action whereby my software is the latest 5.1.1

    I couldn't download apps using my iPad 1. It says that iOS update required for this action.

    Some developers allow you to download older compatible versions of their apps. If it's a free app then try downloading the current version on your computer's iTunes so that the app is in your purchase history, then on your iPad go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app and see if you can download an older compatible version of it. If it's a paid-for app then contact the developer first and ask them if the above will work, don't buy it and then find it won't

    I used to have iTunes 4.3.1, something like that, it kept asking me to upgrade but i had an older ipod so i couldnt. I recently broke my ipod so now i have one for itunes 10.5.3.3 because my ipod came shipped with ios5.0 installed. So i tried to update itunes, didnt work.  I uninstalled it, didnt work. I disabled firewall and antiviurs, didnt work. Ive called tech support, as soon as the person hung up thinking that it was working, it stopped working. I REALLY LOVE MUSIC and want songs on my new ipod. Please someone help....

    First try removing and reinstalling all the Apple software using the following or the link within it that applies to XP.

  • I get an error message when I start up itunes.  It says the registry settings for burning are missing and to reinstall itunes.  Well I have done that and it doesn't work! Help

    When I run diagnostics I get error 43 telling me to repair install itunes and that doesn't work either.

    I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

  • "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed..."

    I realize my explanation of my problem is long-winded, so if you want a shortened version, here it is:
    I've followed all the instructions trying nearly everything, and no matter what I do, iTunes gives me the error saying: "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod's software." My G5 iPod (60GB) works on two other computers (both without any music on them), so I assume there something wrong with my computer and not the iPod itself.
    Now for the long-winded story of the last eight hours of my life...
    I just got the Generation-5 iPod Video (60GB) a today and I'm having problems already. I followed the instructions and installed the iPod software and then plugged in my iPod (iTunes has been on my computer for a while now). I was expecting iTunes to open after plugging in the iPod, but my device manager only detected and installed "a new device". I manually opened iTunes and got an error saying: "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod's software."
    After re-installing the iPod software and iTunes, and restarting my computer countless times, I came looking for help here. I found this page, which seemed to outline my problem exactly. My computer recognizes the iPod as a drive, but iTunes won't have anything to do with it. I have all the symptoms outlined in the heading, so I hoped to solve my problem there. I followed the instructions step-by-step, and after the final restart, I open iTunes to get the same exact error message.
    I decided to determine whether there was a problem with my iPod or if it was my computer. I plugged my iPod into my uncles's powerbook, and got to the point where I can name and configure my iPod. I expected it to work flawlessly on a Mac (which it did) but there is no way for me to continue using a Mac (after tomorrow) for my iPod. This formatted the iPod for a Mac, so I went to another (different from the original) Windows computer, clean of any iTunes and iPod software, and followed the instructions exactly as they're supposed to be followed. After the installations, I plugged in my iPod, and although iTunes didn't open, I was able to format back to Windows and name my iPod (a step in the right direction). I should note that my (anti-iPod) computer is a Windows XP Pro, and the working one is Windows XP Home Edition. This was all well and good, until I remembered there was no music on this computer. So my iPod is completely working there, but there isn't anything I can do with it.
    Next, I came back here and browsed around the discussion boards, hoping to find somebody with a similar problem to mine. There seems to be alot of errors concerning iTunes not recognizing the iPod, but none of the solutions I tried worked for me, including changing the drive letter. I get the "iPod Service Error" while trying to restore to factory settings through iPod updater.
    Of course, I could transfer all 32GB of music from one computer to another, but the second (working) computer isn't mine and I won't have access to it in a couple months. It would be most convenient if I could get my iPod working on my own computer. Any help would be appreciated, especially from somebody who has solved this problem or know how to solve this problem.
    P.S.
    Here are some other minor details that my be important, but I didn't feel they were worth including.
    - My brother has his iPod mini set up on my computer, under a different user login. He gets the same error once in a while, but re-installing iTunes always solves the problem for him. I had him try solving my problem his way, but nothing worked for him either.
    - My computer is an AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3200+, 512MB RAM with Windows XP Pro SP2 installed. My internal hard drive is partitioned, using the letters C, D and H (C being my system files, D used for recovery files and H for my applications and games). My E drive is used as a DVD/CD-ROM Drive, and drives F and G are reserved for virtual drives (none have been running during this entire ordeal). My external hard drive uses the letter I, and I manually set my iPod to use the letter J (I've never used 'J' for anything else before).
    - Yes, I have downloaded and installed the latest versions of iTunes and the iPod software.
    - I'm assuming there is a problem with my computer and not my iPod, since it worked on both other computers I tried. I'm hoping it's as simple as changing a registry file or cleaning out (yet another) temp directory.

    Solution to "Software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed"!
    I battled this same problem for about 5 hours. Going through re-installations, the "5 R's", all these discussion boards. Nothing worked.
    The problem is that iPodService was repeatedly crashing after minute or so. You can verify this by hitting Ctrl-Alt-Delete and noting that iPodService is missing from the process list (sort by image name), or by right-clicking on My Computer and selecting "Manage", then going to Services and checking out the IPodService service - if it gives you the option to "Start", then it's not running.
    Here is what worked.
    1. De-install iTunes and iPod (if you have the updater installed) completely by going to Start --> Control Panel --> Add/Remove Programs. Also delete the C:\Program Files\iTunes and c:\Progam Files\iPod\bin directories. (Don't worry, this doesn't affect your saved music files.)
    2. Log in as an Administrator
    3. Go into the registry (note this is dangerous - you should be careful) and remove the iPod entries that the uninstaller misses.
    3.1 Go to Start menu --> Run.
    3.2 Type in "regedit".
    3.3 Go to HKEYCLASSESROOT --> IPodService.iPodManager.
    There are two keys here, iPodManager and iPodManager.1. In my case, I did not have permission to view either of these. I think this is the root cause of the problem. I think the installer can't properly update these because it doesn't have permission. So you need to change the permissions:
    3.4 Right-click on IPodService.IPodManager
    3.4.1 Select "Permissions..." A warning will appear saying you don't have permission, but that you can change permissions.
    3.4.2 On the window that launches, click on "Advanced..."
    3.4.3 Click on the "Owner" tab.
    3.4.4 Select a valid account (the one you're logged in under) under "Change Owner To".
    3.4.5 Hit "OK".
    3.4.6 Back on the main Permissions window, hit Add and add the same account as a valid user.
    3.4.6.1 Where it says "Enter the object names to select", type in the account name, e.g. "Smith".
    3.4.7 Click on the "Allow" checkboxes for "Full Control" and "Read".
    3.4.8 Hit "OK".
    3.5 Repeat procedure for the "iPodManager.1" key.
    3.6 Now right-click and delete both of these keys.
    I think that's all that's required, but I also searched through the registry and deleted the following keys.
    4. Other keys I deleted:
    4.1 HKEYCLASSESROOT --> IPodManager.IPodManagerUI.1
    4.2 HKEYLOCALMACHINE --> SOFTWARE --> Apple Computer Inc. --> iPod
    I think that's all I deleted, but I'm not positive. I seached for instances of "ipod" using the Find... and Find Next functions under the Edit menu.
    5. Exit out of the registry editor.
    6. Re-install iTunes. I re-installed iTunes and reconnected the iPod, and everything worked.
    I want to repeat that editing the registry can completely mess up your computer if you modify the wrong things, so only do this if you're comfortable, and be extremely careful.
    Hopefully this helps!
    Apple support people: assuming this works, please add it to your solutions page, and feel free to reimburse me for spending half of Christmas figuring this out.

  • I'm trying to run an Apple itunes update  on my Dell   with Windows 7. Doing so I do get the message "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package.  A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support

    I am trying to update my iphone 4, but in order to do that I need to update itunes.  I am unable to do this, or update quicktime.  I get an error message that says
    "A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your support personnel or package vendor." I have a dell running windows 7

    Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
    Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
    If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time?

  • Cannot install iTunes 10.7 on Windows 7. Getting "a program required for this install could not be run"--Apple Software Update is not installed, so updating it is not a possible solution.

    I was following the process of unistalling all Apple software and reinstalling iTunes. But I am getting an error that says "a program required for this install could not be run."
    Other threads recommend updating the Apple Software Update module, but that was uninstalled. So if it's part of the problem, updating it is not a solution.
    Windows 7, 64-bit, SP 1 installed.

    For what it's worth, at the point the installation fails, Bonjour, Apple Application Support, and Apple Mobile Device Support all show as installed on Control Panel. Apple Software Update has a link on the Start Menu but does NOT show as installed on Control Panel. Is there a way to install this separately from iTunes?

    When you reinstalled, did you just uninstall iTunes, then download it from apple.com/itunes/download?

    What does it mean when it says signiture is required for download

    It suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.

  • Processor requirements for PE8

    Hi.  I ordered a new computer which will be delivered this week.  I bought PE8 to use on it so I could burn HD video from a Canon Vixia HFS10 camcorder.  I just noticed, though, that it says the system requirements for PE8 include a 3.0 GHz processor.  My processor is only a 2.66 GHz.  But it is an I7-920 quad core processor with 9 GB of RAM.  Anybody know if I am going to have problems burning blu-rays with this?  I am going to run Windows 7.  Thanks.

    The processor speed listed in the minimum requirements is for a single core (Pentium) processor. Your quad core will likely runs several times faster than that and should be more than powerful enough to work with Premiere Elements.
    The bigger issue is that you list 6 gigs of RAM, which seems to imply that you'll be using the 64-bit version of Windows 7. There you might run into problems. Premiere Elements is a 32-bit application, and some people are experiencing problems trying to interface with 64-bit drivers for it on Windows 7.

  • After software update for Lexmark printer, cannot print document as a file is missing. My iMac runs with Snow Leopard.

    I have a Lexmark 3500 - 4500 series printer connected to my iMac via USB (as my iMac won't do the printing wirelessly. My iMac runs with Mac OS X, Snow Leopard, Version 10.6.8.
    A few days ago, there were several software updates that I have installed as there was mention that they were for Mac OS X Lion.
    Today, I tried to print a document, and it failed. The error message was: "Missing component: /Library/Printers/Lexmark/Drivers/.Resources/3500-4500 Series Color 2.lut".
    I have re-installed the software from Lexmark without success.
    Has anyone had a similar issue who can advise me, please?
    Thank you.

    Have you tried installing the Lexmark software from the Apple site:
    Lexmark Printer Drivers v2.4 for Mac OS X v10.6
    You are running 10.6 which the above link is for, maybe Lion (10.7) doesn't need everything that 10.6 does. Try re-installing using the above link.

    The only way to print from an iPad is to have a printer that supports AirPrint. Here's a link to an Apple support page on AirPrint.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4356
    AirPrint is way to print wirelessly via Wi-Fi  but it requires that the printer supports AirPrint. The iPad cannot use Bluetooth to print and it will not print when connected via USB.

    You need about 40 GB total. Also make sure that your /tmp and /var/tmp have about 2GB free in them, otherwise the installation will fail. (I can't remember the exact numbers, though.)
    I agree, the system requirements do not exist anywere in any straightforward documentation. You need to read at least three different documents to piece together the requirements, and the results will still be incomplete.
