Please help me! I've installed the driver and checked the firewall settings
and I keep getting the message that I can't print because the computer and
printer are not "communicating". What do I do?

Even with updated drivers from Lexmark?

You are installing the software BEFORE connecting the printer to the PC
aren't you?

Did you try another USB port? Or changing the cable? Even try on a
friend's PC?
