Re: Lexmark X125 Drivers wont install



Disconnect the printer from the PC and follow Bruce Sanderson's instructions
for removing all printer drivers... noting specifically steps 15 through 17.

Download a new set of drivers from the Lexmark website at:
http://downloads.lexmark.com/cgi-perl/downloads.cgi?ccs=229:1:0:346:0:0&emeaframe=&fileID=533&searchLang=en&searchLang=en

Install the software and do not reconnect the printer until the software
tells you to do so.

hi all

well, ive had this old printer running before on xp pro sp2, so there must
be a way... the files will extract properly, it goes through the
installation
process, then a small box appears saying "installing printer", then that
box
disappears after a couple of seconds. when i check the control panel for
printers nothing is there, but there is an empty lexmark folder in program
files.

i cannot find the lexmark uninstall utility on their website, and i have
also tried the instructions as described in another X125 related post re
stopping/starting spooler services etc.

any ideas?

many thanks
