Hello
As Lexmark OEM is responsible for the good operation of the printer and their
drivers provided. Check with Lexmark support, their books online and
drivers and ask in their forums (if any).
Good luck, you need to update or reinstall the latest driver.

Looks like the host file prevents your computer to access our activation servers.
Please see the advanced solutions to errors in connection with Adobe Creative Cloud and Creative Suite applications and reset your hosts file after step 2.
Let us know if that helps.

Im trying to print a file, but whenever I try windows media player keeps telling me that it is a codec missing, if I need a codec that you can I put on my computer
Hello
1. what application you are printing - Microsoft Word or Internet Explorer, etc.?
2. has been the fine print before job?
3 did you changes to the computer before the show?
Method 1: Ideally, Windows Media Player has no connection with the printer, it is possible that any software third is the origin of the conflict, place the computer start-up to clean and see if that helps.
A clean boot to test if any element of service or third party application startup is causing this issue.
How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
Note: When you're done to diagnose, follow step 7 in the article to start on normal startup.
Method 2: When media player tells you that there is a missing codec, you give also two options, close and help on the web, click on help from web that could give you the information on the missing codecs.
For more information about codecs, see the following article:
Important: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

photosmart HP 6520 trying to print from the ipad, but it keeps telling me tray paper empty
I try to print from my ipad and it still says that the paper tray is empy, when it is not. I think he wants to "photo paper" and I don't want to print a photo. ??
HI Vicki_O,
Welcome to the Forums of HP's Support. I understand that when I try to print from your iPad using Apple's AirPrint feature that you have found an error output of paper for the printer Photosmart 6520.
I suspect that you are right and the AirPrint feature is that the document is printed as an image file, so it's like a photo manipulation. I have included document Basics AirPrint from Apple. For any additional consultation, I've also included HP How to use Apple AirPrint on a wireless network.
If you want more that what is available with Apple's AirPrint printing options, you can use the application Mobile HP ePrint. I've included the HP ePrint Mobile App FAQ document.
If you want to scan from your printer directly on your iPad, you can always download the AiO Printer Remote app from HP. I've included the HP all-in-One Printer Remote Mobile App FAQ document.
If you need further help, feel free to post back.

I tried to insert a password to protect a document that I send. He told me to add a service that I paid for. I'm still not able to protect document and install a password. I went to tools-Protect but he always tells me that I have to pay for this service after I did. How can I add a password to open my document?
Hi cj47163119,
You need Acrobat application to secure your document with password. It seems that you use Acrobat Reader.
Acrobat Reader is a free service and do not have this option.
If you have Acrobat subscription, you can download it here: Download Adobe Acrobat products. Standard, Pro | DC, XI, X
For more help, see this KB doc: Security with passwords, Adobe Acrobat PDF files
Kind regards

I unplugged and plugged everything in again, but I still get a message that I have to select a printer. The printer is selected as the default printer and the status is ready, but I still get the same message. Help!
Try to select a different default printer and then back to the right printer and reset it by default and see if that helps.
If this does not work, please transfer your question in the Hardware Forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistahardware/threads.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!

How to print a list of the movies that I have on an external hard drive
I have my iTunes on an external hard drive. I would like to print a list of the movies. I tried 'print' which causes quicktime and iTunes to open. I tried "select all", "copy", then paste in the text change which causes a spinning endless ball and the eventual system crash. I guess she's trying to print the actual movies rather than on the list. Any ideas how to create a list of the contents of a disc and then print this list? I use OS X on a macbook pro 10.11.5.
You a run this in Terminal and it will display the names of files in a file on your desktop.
LS path/to/file > > ~/Desktop/Movies.txt
Replace the full path to the folder path/to/folder.
