We just purchased a new printer- series x2500 and tried to load the disc and it said that it is not compatable with our system. The computer runs windows millenium and according to the box that the printer came in it would work. Is there a way you could email us the proper software to make the printer work?

The Lexmark X2500 all-in-one multifunction printer, discontinued as of May 2011, will not install on Windows Vista or Windows 7 using the installation disc. The installation disc predates the newer editions of the Windows operating system and so you will run into difficulty when trying to install the printer. Lexmark has released up to date drivers on their website. Once you have downloaded the drivers, you can install the printer and begin using the device.

Go to the Lexmark website and download the quickstart guide and user manual for your x2500.Read it, then you will have the answer to all your questions. You can download the driver AND other software for your printer, and after installation, your printer will be recognised by your computer. You may not even need the driver, as the later operating systems, ie. Windows XP, include drivers for most printers.
