Driver does not install

Do other devices work in the USB ports on the desktop? Do you use the same cable when you connect to the desktop and when you connect to the laptop or does the laptop connect to the printer via the network?

First try a different USB cable, unless other known working devices do not work. Try a different USB port. If you use a hub, try a direct connection.

I suspect you may be dealing with a port issue. Try going to the Device manager from the Control Panel and checking the status on the USB drivers. If you see a triangle with a yellow exclamation point or red x, try updating the drivers (right click on the driver). Then reboot the computer and check if this helps. Next try uninstalling the drivers and rebooting. Windows should reinstall the drivers.

Check your BIOS settings (depending on the computer press F1, F2, Esc, F10 repeatedly after turning on the computer - this may take a few tries) and make sure the ports are active. Also check in the screen saver advanced settings for a USB power saving setting.

You can try resetting the computer - unplug the accessories from the computer and remove the power cord from both the computer and the wall outlet. Press and hold the power button for 30 seconds. If you are willing to open your computer, try changing the CMOS battery (wait a minute after removing the old battery before inserting the new one). This battery is usually a lithium button battery (CR2032 is common).

I hope this helps.

If you are install the printer using the CD, try not to plug in the usb cable in the begning/ the driver software will ask you to connect the usb cable so try to connect it at that time.

Don’t connect the printer usb cable first

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:
· 1) Disconnect your USB cable from your printer.
· 2) Uninstall all Lexmark printer drivers on your PC.
· 3) Download the correct Vista driver for your model.
· 4) While leaving the USB unconnected, 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.

you must go to printer in control panel, then right click the desired printer icon, then click properties, then click on Port. then if using usb port, you must check each port untill you find the correct usb port that you are connected to (click apply each time). may take a couple tries untill you find the correct usb Port that the cable is connected to. worked on my HP desktop, finally

It could be related to Vista. Check Dells website to see if they have a Vista driver for it.

If you have another USB Cable you can try swapping it.

If you have a spare USB Port, you can try swapping that as well.

I guess you have connected the usb cable to a hub.

You have to connect the cable directly to a pc usb port.

In some cases you may need a new driver wich can be download from www.brother.com
