Even after calling Lexmark and Apple and going to the Apple store. It took having the airport express hooked up to my <br>modem. :) I was able to get my wireless printer ( Lexmark ) to work finely after 7 months to work on my Macbook.

I tried the advice on the Lexmark site regarding Leopard, and installing the drivers from the extras on the Leopard install disk, but my model X54850 is not there. Anyhoo, I don't feel as bad now that I know I'm not the only one cheesed off with Lexmark. Think I may be taking the printer back to PC World and getting my cash back Thanks for your posts Hello there, you have all basically described the problems I have been experiencing since last night.

Anyhoo, I don’t feel as bad now that I know I’m not the only one cheesed off with Lexmark.

Think I may be taking the printer back to PC World and getting my cash back

Thanks for your posts

I deleted the PDE folder as suggested and restarted, and it is printing fine over a USB link, I can not get it to work via the Wi-fi link. I'm leaving it well alone while it's working. According to some links I've read, Lexmark aim to upgrade the drivers for the 3500 - 4500 printer some time next year - end of Jan - 08. Why should it take them so long to tweak a printer driver? Hope for some. 3500 – 4500 printer

Now it works fine. I found my pde files and instead of deleating them I just added a 1 after the name of each one that was crashing my applications. Now it works fine.

After deleting the PDE folder, can you print over wifi, or only USB? I have a x6570 with the same problem.
