Re: Wireless Network Printing - Printer Communication Failure


So its been awhile - I have been travelling on business, but once back,
the problem of having to reboot my client to regain connectivity to my
Lexmark x9350 was quickly becoming a problem.

I had the same problem, whether I was hard wired or wireless into the
printer - I would print fine for about 10 min., the loose all
communications to the printer - Interestingly enough, i could still
access the web administration of the printer from my laptop - so pure
network connectivity was not the problem.

A quick browse through multiple forums did not yield any further
results.

Before you read any further, I should qualify, that I have left my
laptop on overnight & back this morning & it is working (i.e.
printing)!!!! Now while the symptoms don't seem present anymore - I
cannot truly claim this is a fix, 'cause as we all know, trying to
troubleshoot an intermittent problem is a challenge in itself - lets
just say that at this point in time, the fix seems to work.

I was focusing on fooling around on the client (Win XP pro (32bit)), &
I noticed that if I killed *lxcqcoms.exe *process & tried to print
after that it would start back printing. A google on lxcqcoms.exe
final yielded this interesting piece:

http://support.lexmark.com/cgi-perl/...90&relevance=1

Not exactly 100% match - but seemed interesting - I figured applying
the patch could not be buggering me any worse. A quick download /
install / reboot - & here I am today.

So, like I said, seems to work for me - if anyone else tries it & it
works for them, please share with the group - have we found the holy
grail? or does the quest continue?
