Your new router works.
Your phone works.
Your computer works.
Your internet is faster.
Then you try to print.
Nothing.
Your Lexmark printer won’t connect.
You start wondering:
βWhy did the router fix break my printer?β
The Answer May Be Simpler Than You Think
Your printer may still be trying to connect to the old network.
Imagine this:
Old Wi-Fi:
MyHome123
New Wi-Fi:
MyHome456
Your laptop knows the new password.
Your phone knows the new password.
Your printer may not.
Reconnecting the Printer
Use the printer’s wireless or network setup menu.
Look for the current Wi-Fi network.
Select it.
Enter the current password.
The exact instructions depend on your Lexmark model.
Basic Troubleshooting Before You Get Frustrated
Check the Wi-Fi name.
Check the password.
Check the printer’s wireless status.
Check the distance between your printer and router.
Check whether your other devices are online.
If the printer previously worked with the old router, remember that this is a clue.
Can’t find the right setting?
Don’t spend an hour going through every menu on the printer.

Call SecureMeRey.
Say:
βI replaced my router and now my Lexmark printer won’t connect.β
That’s enough for us to start the conversation.
What If the Printer Connects but Windows Doesn’t See It?
Then the issue may have shifted.
The printer may now be connected to Wi-Fi, but Windows may not have the right printer configuration.
That’s a separate problem and should be treated separately.
Need help finishing the setup?

5. My Xerox Printer Is Connected but Won’t Print
My Xerox Printer Is Connected but Won’t Print
Your Xerox printer shows it’s connected.
Your Wi-Fi is working.
Your computer is online.
So why isn’t the document printing?
This is the kind of problem that makes people want to give up.
Check Which Printer Your Computer Is Using
If you’ve used more than one printer, Windows or macOS may have several devices saved.
Your computer could be sending the document somewhere else.
Before changing complicated settings, make sure the correct Xerox printer is selected.
Check the Print Queue
Sometimes a document gets stuck.
Then other print jobs wait behind it.
You press Print again.
Then again.
And eventually you wonder why nothing is happening.
Be careful.
You don’t want to accidentally send the same document twenty times once the printer starts responding again.
Basic Troubleshooting Before You Get Frustrated
Check that the Xerox printer is powered on.
Check its display for errors.
Confirm the printer is connected to the expected network.
Check which printer is selected on the computer.
Look for a stuck print job.
Try to determine whether other devices can print.
Still not printing?
You’ve done the basic checks.
That’s a good time to stop clicking buttons.

Talk to a real person at SecureMeRey.
βMy Xerox printer is connected but won’t print.β
We’ll discuss what’s happening.
What If It Says βReadyβ but Still Does Nothing?
That’s frustrating.
But βReadyβ usually tells you the printer itself believes it is ready to accept a job.
The problem could be somewhere between your computer and the printer.
That’s why the exact symptoms matter.
