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. 1. Copy the complete message exactly as shown, including any letters, spaces, or punctuation around 9.00.
  2. 2. Find the printer's exact model number. The same-looking code can mean something different on another model family.
  3. 3. Let the current print, scan, or update operation stop before touching controls, paper paths, or covers.
