Lexmark error code 9.00
Quick answer
"Printer had to restart. Last job may be incomplete." The printer restarted itself and is telling you the job that was running may not have finished. It is a notice about what happened, not a fault to clear — reprint the affected job and watch for whether the restart repeats.
Before you try the solution
- 1. Copy the complete message exactly as shown, including any letters, spaces, or punctuation around 9.00.
- 2. Find the printer's exact model number. The same-looking code can mean something different on another model family.
- 3. Let the current print, scan, or update operation stop before touching controls, paper paths, or covers.

If the error is still there
- 1Return to the screen or job that produced the message and check whether the code has cleared.
- 2If 9.00 returns, do not repeat a risky procedure. Record when it appears and check the documentation for the exact model.
- 3If the documented action does not clear 9.00, contact Lexmark support or a qualified printer technician with the model number and complete message.
Other Lexmark error codes
- 920-925Fuser service error range
- 200.xxIndicates the printer registered one or more sheets as jammed under the toner cartridge, not specifically 'at the front of the printer.' If no physical jam is found despite repeated occurrences, a jam sensor may be malfunctioning and require service.
- 31.xxA supply is missing or is not answering the printer, so Lexmark asks you to reinstall it rather than replace it. The second pair of digits names which one: 31.40-31.43 a toner cartridge by colour, 31.60 the black imaging unit, 31.64 the colour imaging kit, 31.35 the waste toner bottle, 31.80 the fuser, and 31.30 the transfer module (which asks for a restart instead). Reseating usually clears it; dirty contacts are the common cause.
- 32.xx"Replace unsupported" — the printer recognises the supply but rejects it as not supported by this model. The second pair names the supply: 32.40-32.43 a colour cartridge, 32.60 the black imaging unit, 32.64 the colour imaging kit, and a 32.xy variant the fuser. This is a different fault from 31.xx (missing or unresponsive) and from 42.xx (right supply, wrong region).
- 33.xx"Non-Lexmark supply, see User's Guide" — the printer has detected a cartridge, imaging unit, or imaging kit that it does not identify as Lexmark-made. 33.40-33.43 is a colour cartridge, 33.60 the black imaging unit, 33.64 the colour imaging kit. It is a notice about the supply's origin, not a report of a hardware fault.
- 37.xInsufficient printer memory. 37.1 means there is not enough memory to collate the job, and 37.3 means some held jobs were deleted to make room. The related 39.1 "complex page" warns that a page was too complex to render fully, so some data may not have printed. All three are memory-pressure notices, not hardware faults.
