I have a lexmark Z32 which I got for free with my Quicksilver. I just started using it when my Epson 740i kind of broke down and stopped printing. I just started using the Lexmark a few days ago, and it is now blinking the two green lights in a kind of pattern that's too complicated to describe here. Lets just say they're blinking a lot. Now, the SolutionCenter program refuses to make a test print and the printer cannot be made to budge a paper even a little. It just sits there blinking. Can anyone help me? I just started using this a couple of days ago so I don't think it worn out.
By the way, I installed in OS X, as I haven't used OS 9 in at least a month, if that means anything.

I'm almost positive one of the motors is broken... perhaps a broken wire?
Call lexmark and have them get you a new one.

My Lexmark Z32 did that until I replaced the black ink cartridge. It was kinda stupid because I had only printed maybe 35-50 pages before it just gave out. I went through the same stuff as you checking the paper, the print center, test pages, etc. Nothing until I replaced the cartridge. Even tried pulling them overnight, no dice. Good luck <img border="0" alt="[Skeptical]" title="" src="graemlins/bugeye.gif" />

Yeah, about those TPS reports, didn't you get the memo?

I guess I'll try replacing the black ink cartridge, since I'm not an expert in fixing motors and circuitry. I'll get back to you all when I try that out.
