text: I don't think it's you at all - I just tried connecting to Lexmark's web site, and I'm not getting anything, and I also tried pinging their site, and got a time-out message.  Looks like their site/server is having problems.  \n\nIf you're having trouble with the installation, go to Start>Printers and Faxes; if the printer is shown there, make sure it is set as the default printer (the icon should have a check-mark beside it if it is the default printer).  If it isn't, right-click on the icon, and select "Set as Default Printer."  \n\nIf you're still having troubles, right click on the icon and remove that printer, and start over with the installation. Printer software, in my experience, is some of the buggiest stuff around, so you may have to dig into the CD itself and find the driver file (usually a file with the extension ".inf") that is the right one for your printer, and copy it to your system.
