Re: @Pompous Git. Lexmark C543
The Lexmark issue isn't a show-stopper. It just means I need to use the printer's web interface to check the status every so often. I know it's not a h'ware issue; several people with the same problem have contacted me direct as a result of my post.
Mint 18 didn't fix the problem but introduced another: dramatic decrease in graphics performance. So it goes... It was an immense pleasure to restore my Mint install with no issues. Why MS make restoring Windows such a pain is a mystery.
The magic healing crystal comment was tongue-in-cheek BTW. Sorry if that wasn't obvious. I have been known to use it when fixing computers and you wouldn't credit the number of people who believe me when I tell them that's what did the business. I'm an evil bastage sometimes :-)
