Vista Tutorial - Lexmark Printer and Vista

I bought a Lexmark 3400 series all in one printer. I have been using in with
my desk top computer with Mcro. Offive and it has worked great. I recently
purchased a lap-top with Vista. We loaded the printer program on to the
lap-top and made it the default. When we go to print we get the message that
the computer can not communicate with the printer.

compatible)?

It may be as simple as unplugging/replugging to allow Vista to redetect it.

Try uninstalling the program off the laptop then re-attach the printer to the
laptop [which should be connected to the internet] and let Vista find a
driver for it.

Thanks so much. I was having this exact problem with my Lexmark x1100, and the solution to let Vista find the drivers online for me worked perfectly. My Lexmark is both new and old - my parents purchased it for me over 5 years ago, but it remained unopened, and in the box all this time, because I already had a dell printer that came with the pc. I'm wondering what they are thinking at Lexmark, now that I just registered the printer ; )
