My problem is even worse. I bought the print two weeks ago. I could
use the printer right after I installed the driver. When I turned off
the computer, the "Lexmark X125 setting" will abruptly end in seperate
window saying it is ending program. After I restarted the computer
again, the icon of the printer disappeared and there would be an error
message appreared frequently on the screen

Spooler Subsystem App has encountered a problem ....

All I could do to restore the system was to uninstall the driver! I
had used the driver for CJXP125LE.EXE but it just did not work. I sent
several message to the Lexmark support. They insisted my system does
not meet the minimum requirement which is

Windows XP
, 300 MHz processor or Equivalent
, 128 MB of Ram
, 500 MB Hard Drive space
, 300 MB Virtual Memory

They insist the only solution is to purchase more RAM for the system.

This is simply absurd. My machine is a lot better than this minimum
requirement printed on the retail box. This kind of support is worse
than none. I searched the lexmark x125 problem under win XP. It seems
that there has been a lot of posts regarding the issue since last
year. I have read these posts before I bought this printer, I will
never buy it. I would never buy a Lexmark Printer again.

Now I can only use the ALL-IN-ONE printer as a FAX machine and copier
but not as a printer. Is there anyone who can really help? Thanks in
advanced.

Lemark printers are rubbish. Better off with a HP, Epson or Brother
printer.

BTW, What is the spec of your machine? 128M is LOW for a PC with XP on
it. You can run windows in 128M but not applications as well. My PC
has 512M of RAM! I take min spec of XP from Microsoft with a big pinch
of salt. Use the Recommended spec settings and work from there....
