Hi,

Make sure you have the correct driver. Windows 7 comes in 32 bit and 64 bit versions. Also, you should uninstall the current driver for the printer before re-installing any other drivers.

See this link for the driver (select your system) and additional information.

I have a x2470 printer and my computer has windows 2007 and it seems there is no comunication between the computer and printer. I've done all the steps from troubleshooting to fix the problem.

Did you:
1) Verify that there is a Win 7 driver for this printer on the www.lexmark.com site.

2) If there is a driver, you must download the driver.

3) Remove the old driver.

4) Install the new driver.

It is imperative that the old driver is removed prior to the installation of the new driver.

Lexmark X2470 All-In-One Installation Problem.

This is from the Lexmark support site:

Attention Windows Vista Users

If you have installed your printer on your PC using an original Lexmark Driver CD that came with your product and you are experiencing problems when printing, you may have installed the Windows XP driver.

Follow these steps to resolve:
· Disconnect your USB cable from your printer.
· Uninstall all Lexmark printer drivers on your PC.
· Download the correct Vista driver for your model.
· Install the driver on your PC.

Important - Do not reconnect the USB cable until the install software prompts the question of how the printer is connected.
