please help i have a lexmark x83 printer it is on but i
cant print. it just keeps telling me its offline. i have
unplugged it replugged it & im really just ready to freak
out. anyone have any ideas??? thank you
 
I just had a similar experience. In XP if you go to the
Printers and Faxes dialog box, right click on "Use
Printer Online" menu item, click on it. If that doesn't
work (it didn't on mine), reinstall WindowsXP. That was
the only thing I could get to work and get my printers
back online (ready). If you reinstall, use the "Repair"
or "Upgrade" option on the reinstall and you shouldn't
lose anything. I just did it today and it worked just
fine for me. Barney
