I bought one of these and I can't get it to work with either my computer (Dell with Vista) or my printer (Lexmark). Any ideas?

Is it ( the memory card) recognized by the computer when it''s plugged in? If not likely a cable/connection problem. Is the USB port working? Try a thumbdrive with files already on it.

It didn't work with my Dell. I ended up getting a new all in one printer to replace my Dell. Can't say if it was the ink or the printer.

Either Apple or Lexmark need to make this compatible in order to print directly from my Ipad. I do not want to turn on my laptop in order to print from my Ipad. That seems ridiculous. A patch is needed for Lexmark to remain competitive in the tablet market. The writing is on the wall as to where are computing needs are going.

I'm sorry I can't help. I use Windows 7. I can say this is one awesome all-in-one printer. I love it.

I bought the printer for my son's Dell computer. He has an old windows operating system which I believe is XP . None the less the printer does work well with his computer. I hope this helped .

Up to date drivers is a good idea. Also, when you click on "print", a square menu comes up. Make sure the right printer is identified and then click on "Properties". then on the tab titled "Main" if you are not already there. You should see a line of pictures suggesting draft, text, etc. Click on "Text and Image". That should work. I had to specify with each printing for a while, then it got the hint that I wanted text and image.Good Luck!

Brad, I use a pc (dell) and a HP office jet pro 8500 wireless printer. You would be more informed by ??ing Memorex on this. Sorry that is all I can suggest.

My understanding is Lexmark is either now out of biz or soon will be. I finally just donated mine to GoodWill along with a boxed new printhead. Worst most time consuming printer to keep operational of my lifetime. Hope your experience gets better

I have one and it worked fine on my old XP machine, but my new Dell has Vista and so far I can't get it to work, even afer downloading the drivers that sandisk said would fix the problem. Vista keeps seeing it as a 14 in 1 drive and refuses to except any input from it. I just gave it to a friend who's still running (and I wish I was) XP and replaced it with one by Belkin.

.....as long the printer drivers are compatible (look on their site, or try to find a forum on the model). All monitors are plug and play, any video card will recognize them, just make sure you have a DVI cable and that you monitor supports DVI, it will save you a lot of aggravation on adapters (you wont need any, just the cable). Good luck.

I used it but like you did it not work for me and I sent it back I am surprise they are still making it I recommendation is send it back for refund if possible I think if memory serves me correctly Kodak made it but it been such long time I could be wrong I know I tried to used it and look for drivers and could not find any that work with my Windows Vista IBM, I hope this answear your concerns . I think it more trouble than it is worth you might hire company to transfer for you and it may be less trouble as well Ok have good day

it has something to do with the drivers of the computer not being up to date i beleive the printer was designed to work on much older computers and with the upgraded technology and newer versions of windows you would need a new driver installed but they stopped doing technical support and stopped making any type of products or assistance to go with the product so your basically out of luck

Make sure you have the paper type properly set. I accidently set mine to card stock, deactivating duplex printing for that tray.

I wish I could help you. It is not a good printer, I have other problems. I wish I had returned it.

Gotta look at the list of models covered by this particular product, and install the latest update for your particular model at the Lexmark webwsite. That's what I did and it worked just fine, thanks the Lord Jesus Christ.

I have a Dell with Windows 7. I plugged the Printer into my Computer and it only "partially" loaded the Driver. So I initially couldn't use Windows 7 Print/Scan software as plug and play. You simply load in the provided Canon CD (I installed everything and later on uninstalled programs I didn't want) Now everything works great including Windows 7 Print/Scan software too.

I have been researching this and even coming from the HP Forum help section, there seems to be no fix for this. It came to a dead end of confused, tired, and impatient users who demand an answer but yet to have receive one. The best they could come up with is revert to the previous windows which I wouldnt do just for a photo printer. I would just utilize the card slots. Sorry and I hope I helped a little if any at all.
