If the error message does not reappear, the error is resolved. the 2200 error is a scanner error means the scanner motor failed to initialize. lexmark recommends that you unplug the unit remove the power supply wait a couple of minute reinstall the p/s and power the unit back up. step to is repeat step one but us the belt to move the scanner carriage to the middle and power it up.
on top of this i would inspect the guide bars for dirt build up and clean them if need be. one thing to consider the ccd knows that it has reached home by the reflecting of the light to the carriage home photo cell within the scanner itself. this light is reeflected back off of the mirrors inside of the ccd. dust on these mirrirs will prevent the photo cell from nowing where home is. these can be cleaned with q-tips
