• My brother mfc290c stopped communicating with my computer printer.

  My dominsion Dell 2400 has a problem that I managed to install the printer on another computer, tried 3 times to get the cd to run the program through but failed. I could never get that ability to fax printers implemented when I tried I got error message missing fxscfgwz.dll. What is the best way to find & install this file. Also any ideas on why I can't download the original cd installing printer brother mfc290c on my 1st computer? Help!

  Debbe,

  Please see comments from Ian Pugh and then stand out the answer of the "support engineer" as a 'response' - is not the solution to your problems.

  You seem to have a number of problems, but you have not provided all the information to diagnose them.  Please describe what is happening when you try to install the printer. Be as detailed as possible. If you receive error messages, enter them completely, without paraphrasing.

  That said the brother tech was wrong with your computer?  Usually, a technical support uses this kind of pointing the finger when they do not understand the problem.

  You say that you have installed the printer on another computer.  What version of Windows is installed on this computer?  What computer do you intend to keep the connected printer?  Do you intend to share the printer on a local network?

  Please, do the following in order to provide some basic information about your Dell 2400:

  • Click Start, then click Run, and then type msinfo32.exe in the "Open" box and click OK
  • After filled the system information window, click Edit > select all, then click on edit > copy
  • Then paste it (CTRL + V), the copied data in your response here

  What were you doing when you received the error message about fxscfgwz.dll?  Normally, this error can occur when you try to install Windows XP Fax Services - but you should not be done for a device like your brother MFC290c.  Only install you Windows XP Fax Services when you use a fax modem - and your MFC290c is a stand-alone fax machine, not a fax modem.  Part of the software included on the Brother CD-ROM allows you to send faxes from your computer, but it's totally separate from Windows XP Fax Services (I guess it is possible that Brother PC - Fax using some of the files that are normally used by Fax of XP, which is why I asked what you were doing when the error occurred; normally when a third-party software using a Windows file (the file is included in the installation of software package, even if it is 'supposed to be' already available on the computer).

  Hello Lsnnj,

  Thank you for your message.  It could be a few reasons that this is happening, try them next steps.
  1. click on 'Start' > right click 'Manage' > click the (+) sign next to "Services and Applications" > click on "Services" below
  On the right, highlight it, and then double-click "print spooler".
  Make sure that the Startup Type is set to automatic
  On the "" Connection tab and make sure that the Local System account is selected, and also that allow the service to interact with desktop is activated.
  Below, you will see the hardware profile. Make sure that this option is enabled, if it is disabled, select the profile, and then click the Activate button.
  Restart your computer and test the printer.
  If this does not resolve your problem, try to go to the website of the manufacturer of your printer and download/install the latest drivers for your printer.
  Please let us know if it did or did not help to solve your problem.

• Lexmark Interpret S405 is not communicating with the computer and will not print

  My computer works with Windows 7 and updates automatically.  I got the Lexmark Interpret S405 for 18 months, and it has worked great until a couple of months.  When I try to print, I get an error message indicating that the printer is not communicating with the computer.  When I check the printer, it shows he's ready.  The print job shows that it is ready to print, but nothing happens except for this message.  When I try to erase the impression, it really takes a lot of time - usually have to unplug the printer so that it can finally clear.  Then it still will not print if I try again unless I restart the computer.  Lexmark support page says that there is a problem with Windows 7 and their product.  All the solutions for this problem yet?

  Computer model of the bridge ZX6970, OS 64-bit, intel CORE CPU I-13 3.30 GHz, Windows 7 Home Premium.  Can someone advise a fix for this problem?  Thank you!

  Hello

  Have you tried to download and install the updated firmware for the Lexmark Interpret S405 from the manufacturer's website.

  If this isn't the case, please download and install it.

  Download Firmware for your printer!

  Hello

  What is the model number of the HP printer?

  You can try the following and see if they help.

  Method 1: Try to set the printer online.

  a. open the start menu and click on the "devices and printers". This will open a window with a list of the printers currently installed on your computer. Right-click on the printer and select "Use printer online".

  b. clear all print jobs. Double-click on the printer, then go to the Menu "printer" and select "Cancel all Documents." It could be a stuck print job that would cause the printer go offline. Try once more to put the printer online and try to print a test page.

  c. turn the printer off and then on again. Check if the printer is blocked. Check all the network connections to make sure that none are loose.

• OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus: PC stopped communicating with wireless Officejet Pro 8600 more

  My HP printer has been connected to my PC via my home wireless network and work without problem, for 18 months.  A few weeks ago the printer stop appearing in the printer dialog box when I went to print a document.  The printer continues to operate wireless for all my mobile devices without problem.

  I went through all the HP process and tools for troubleshooting, downloaded and installed all updates, nothing helps.  I uninstalled my PC off and now it will not reinstall.  The installation process see the printer on the network, but when I try to install it it said "cannot be installed on the network" and it goes no further. I lost hours and hours trying to get to the bottom of it, nothing helps.

  What is the problem?

  Hi @Layli,

  Welcome to the HP Forums!

  I noticed that your PC has stopped communicating with your HP Officejet Pro 8600 wireless connection more. I'm sorry to hear that, but happy to help!

  Out of curiosity, what happens if you install the printer using the USB method wireless configuration? Check out this guide, your wireless printerand select Configuration USB wireless.

  Also, if this does not work, able to install the printer are you using a USB connection? In this way, we can see if the problem could be the connection itself or not.

  You see error messages on the control panel of the printer at all?

  Thanks for posting and hope to hear from you soon!
