My co-worker asked me if I could help. She has an HP printer that was working. She had to move the desk and the printer got jostled. After that, the light just blinks. She uninstalled and reinstalled but still the same. Any thoughts as to what's going on?

Check the USB cable connection between the Printer and the PC. That would be my first thing to do/check.

Ron,

My HP does the same and it's a simple " turn everything off and then back on"!Power wise...not just reboot!

The Lexmark X85 was well known to have the problem you describe. It's been a couple of years ago but from what I remember the new drivers from Lexmark took care of the problem, or at least most of the problems.

First step, download and install the latest drivers from Lexmark.
