I have a lexmart x74-x75 printer. I bought it in Feb 20,2004. I bought a new pc tower and it has windows vista installed. I downloaded it into my tower. It didn't download the software. I can't uninstall it because it did't put it in the programs or add remove programs file.

I regret to inform you that the Lexmark X74-X75 All-In-One printer is not compatible on Windows 7 operating system. Please contact Lexmark Technical Support Center for other options.

hello dude

Support information the X75 printer can be found here.

Support information the X74 printer can be found here.

On these page are a link to Windows 7 Information; if you open you will find that Lexmark does not support your printer for Windows 7.

There are no Windows drivers available for the X75; however drivers for Windows, 2000, 98, Me and XP (32-bit) are available for the X74 and these will probably work for the X75.

If your operating system is one of the above check under the tab labelled Downloads; select your operating system to download your driver and save in a known location.

When you connect your printer Windows will try to install but you should be prepared to point to the driver location. If the printer doen not autoinstall you will have to add your printer manually through the Printer section of your Control Panel.

It would be better if you install the software/driver first in your computer. The software also shows you the instructions on how to setup the printer itself. Here are the drivers available for download in the Lexmark website. Just click on the driver compatible with your computer's operating system.
- Lexmark X75 AIO Printer driver for Mac OS X, Mac OS X 10.1, Mac OS X 10.1.5, Mac OS X 10.2, Mac OS X 10.2.1, Mac OS X 10.2.8, Mac OS X 10.3.x, and Mac OS X 10.4.x.
- Custom Driver for Microsoft Windows 2000
- Driver for Microsoft Windows XP
These are the only available drivers. That means the printer is not compatible with Mac 10.5, Mac 10.6, Windows Vista and Windows 7.
For additional information, here's the Setup Sheet (Lexmark X74, X75) and the User's Guide (Lexmark X74, X75) . Hope this helps.

I dont think there is a driver for windows vista for lexmark x74/x75.
Try the windows xp driver from lexmark.com. See if that works.

You can download the most current driver for your printer directly from Lexmark by using the link below.

For Lexmark http://support.lexmark.com/perl/support/support.cgi?ccs=229:1:0:0:0:0

once there, use the product selector to enter your printer, then select your operating system, then download the driver. save to your desktop, when the download finishes, close all browser windows and double click on the file to install the new drivers.

Good luck

Yes, you are going to need to download new drivers for Windows Vista

Windows Vista Driver For the X4250: http://www.techspot.com/drivers/driver/file/information/9086/

^^ Just download and install that , will get your printer right up

As for the X75 , there does not seem to be a Vista driver out for it yet , you can give the XP driver a shot and see if it will work

X75 Driver: http://downloads.lexmark.com/perl/downloads/downloads.cgi?ccs=229:1:0:358:0:0

The driver is right here:
CJXP75LE.exe

You will be having a USB cable that connects the printer to your PC or notebook. I believe you have an internet connection that is always on. Once you connect the printer to the PC or notebook and if you have windows vista, the printer software will be automatically downloaded and installed. If you are not using Windows Vista, here are some links for the printer drivers.
