Why Has my Lexmark x1250 series stopped printing Wordpad?

as you say your printer prints bur just not word pad. inthis case the computer can not find the pathways to the printer when it tyies to send a command to print from word pad. the printer driver has kicked out. you need to reload the printers software so the printer will operate properly. to do this you must first uninstall the printers software. but when you do make sure you have uinpluged the usb cable from the back of the printer so it will completely uninstall the software. then re oinstall the software and that shouild solve your problem hope this helps you:
