Hi,

Maybe it's not a good news, but I have to tell you.

Is this your printer - Lexmark Z23?

If so, it does't have a Vista driver, and I doubt it will have since it is
said to be discountinued.

These are models compatible with Vista:

Sorry and good luck.

The manual said: hook up first on a USB port and then run the machine.
The printer is properly recognized by its name in Device Manager under Other
devices.
It makes a dingdong sound when dis/connected.
I just cannot attach it to Printers in the Printer setting menu nor print
for that reason.

How to proceed?

Maria

Did you run the set up program properly? You usually leave the usb
printer disconnected until asked for by the install program, hook it up and
finish the install.

Hi,

Does Vista Home Premium NOT accept a USB printer as its only/first
printer?

My Lexmark Z23-33 is recognized by the USB function but not visible nor
addressable under Printers.

Do I really need an old 'local' printer with the big connector as a
first printer?

Is there a workaround?

Curious,
Maria
