Lexmark Z-23. All of a sudden it says Connection cannot be completed. Printer cannot be found. Check connectins and make sure printer is turned on. I have....all seems fine. Uninstall and re install? Or what?

I've had this problem with Lexmark.
My usual problem is a device conflict when I've just used the scanner. If this is the case, close the scanner software, power off scanner, then try to print (opening scanner software first if this is what you're printing from)

Hmmm. Close scanner software? I thought it was except when I was actually using it.....trying to print from Word....

Try turning of the computer and turning it back on.

Thanks Maggie! That did the trick. (I knew about that, but forgot....)
