Calling for service
When you call for printer service, describe the
problem you are experiencing, the message on the
display, and the troubleshooting steps you have
already taken to find a solution.
You need to know your printer model type and serial
number. See the label behind the toner waste
container door of the printer for this information. The
toner waste container door is on the left side of the
printer.
The serial number is also listed on the menu settings
page.
For service in the U.S. or Canada, call 1-800-
Lexmark (1-800-539-6275). For other countries/
regions, visit the Lexmark Web site at
www.lexmark.com
Note:
When calling for service, call from
the location of the printer.
Checking an unresponsive
printer
If your printer is not responding, first make sure:
The power cord is plugged into the printer and
a properly grounded electrical outlet.
The electrical outlet is not turned off by any
switch or breaker.
The printer is not plugged into any surge
protectors, uninterrupted power supplies, or
extension cords.
Other electrical equipment plugged into the
outlet is working.
The printer is turned on.
The printer cable is securely attached to the
printer and the host computer, print server,
option, or other network device.
The scanner cable is securely attached to the
MFP and printer.
Remove the printer operator panel cover, and
verify a menu screen is displayed, then replace
the cover.
Once you have checked each of these
possibilities, turn the printer off, wait at least 10
seconds, and then turn the printer back on. This
often fixes the problem.
Locating the port name
and IP address
The port name appears in the upper right corner of
the MFP home screen and the IP address appears in
the upper left corner of the MFP home screen when
the MFP is connected to a network.
The address also appears on the network setup
page.
