Lexmark drivers

Hey everyone, I have a Lexmark P3150 Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit and was wondering if anyone knew what I could do to get it working properly? I can't seem to find any drivers and most places I check just either give me the run-around or make me lose hope lol...


Can anyone please help?

Lexmark dropped support for this model at XP..
they do not intend to create a newer driver..

you could try via the Virtual XP mode in Windows7 - but IMO, it's just too fussy to even contemplate..

it's a shame because the p3150 was a great piece of hardware, but it seems Lexmark just want us to buy a later model..!!

I have a Lexmark P4350 and am running windows 7 home premium.

I have downloaded the vista drivers.

I tried the "run as vista" suggestion from earlier.

I step through the installation wizard, and get to the bit with the progress bar(s). The progress bar(s) appear to go to the end and then the installation wizard dissapears without even an "Installation complete" message.

There is the appropriate shortcut in the start menu, but the executable it points to is not there. So it seems that the installation failed without completing properly.

I have a Lexmark X2350 All in one and I too seem to be going round in circles looking for a driver. This worked fine on my old PC with Windows xp. I guess it is too old to work with Windows 7 ? or can anyone point me in the right direction please.

I have a Lexmark E232 which I had XP drivers for.
Lexmark driver support is poor so with Win 7 64 bit I just plugged in the printer and MS did the rest. A driver was automatically downloaded and I've been using the printer without problems for 6 months.
I think it is a basic generic Lexmark driver (V3.1, 2008).

Thank you mpcrsc562 for pointing me in the right direction. By downloading the vista driver cjs2300EN.exe my printer is now working. Much appreciated.

I have a Lexmark Z65p. I received it from a friend BNIB. Lexmark does not have any drivers to support this printer on Windows 7. What should I do to get my printer to work with my computer?

windows 7

printer series 1400
Z1420

i have tried to get it to work, but windows 7 just will not load it properly and when i went to lexmark the only links i could down load are the ones who want money to fix it.
i just need a driver to b egin with and it should be free........right???
been working on this for days, and it does make sense to try it the vista way, but i have no clue NOW how to even begin that

huge sigh

thanks in advance for any help !!!!

Here's how I got my Lexmark printer to work in Windows 7:

I have a X2470, but hopefully this will work for others as well.

1. Download the Vista drivers for your printer. For me it was cjr2400EN.exe

2. Do NOT click on the file to execute it! Instead, right click it and unzip to another folder (mine was named cjr2400EN).

3. In that folder, find Setup.exe. Right click on that file.

3. In Properties, select Compatibility.

4. Select Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows Vista

5. At the bottom, check Run this program as an administrator.

6. Click Apply and ok.

7. Then, click on the setup file as you normally would to install. From that point on my install was normal and the printer seems to work fine.

Hope this helps!

I have a X7170 and used the directions above to install on my Dell XPS 1645 with Windows 7 Professional 64 bit and it works perfectly.
