Lexmark Printer Not Communicating with MAC?
I have a Lexmark laser jet printer at home for over an year now. I use it for normal or daily office work since I work from home. I used to have a Windows PC which has my Lexmark printer connected as default but due to some malfunction I switched to Mac recently. The only problem is my Mac is not able to detect or communicate with my Lexmark printer. i had tried resetting it and updated the driver but nothing helped. can anyone tell me what is the issue here? is it with my printer or Mac computer?
