Have been given a Lexmark Z1420 wireless printer. No instruction book. Have installed cd but don't know how to get the computer to 'see' my printer. I have plugged it in (although the lead supplied seemed to be the wrong one and get a green light on top of the printer but no wireless light at the front, iyswim.

I have had a look at Lexmark's website but can't make head or tail of their instructions - nothing on my Mac is the same as their instructions!

i'm usually not bad at working things out but am a bit outdated in my knowledge and just want a quick route into connecting the damm thing - it's been sitting on the floor now for about 6 months!

arrrgh!

When I set up my wireless printer there was a point in the setup where I had to connect the printer to the computer so that it could configure the network. Dunno what lead you'd use for that, but good luck!

thanks bramble, I do have a usb cable so I will try to connect that and see if it helps.

you are right about the arrrgh! factor though, my poor brain was in a puddle in the floor last night
