Thank you,

Yes, it is a Lexmark Z23.

How come it is correctly recognized in Device Manager as a Z23-Z33 (series) Printer though not functioning through Printer Setup??

In order to be recognized as the correct printer there surely must be a compatible driver, or not?

| 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:

| 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?

| Did you run the set up program properly? You usually leave the usb

| 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
