Windows 7: Windows 7 x64 Lexmark z1480 drivers will not install

Hi, I recently got an older model printer (Lexmark z1480) I am currently running windows 7 x64 (SP1) and used the recommended drivers from the lexmark website http://support.lexmark.com/index?seg...rompage=null#2



When installing the drivers (at the point when it asks you to connect the printer via USB), upon connecting the printer, it will attempt to install some drivers, but the process will fail (Device driver software was not successfully installed) I have tried reinstalling them multiple times as well as attempting to manually install them through device manager (printer appears under other devices) it fails to install the drivers every time. The printer works fine on older versions of windows but with windows 7 x64 it seems to fail, even though the lexmark website shows that there are windows 7 drivers available.
