Great news that you still have the disk. You can use this disk to install the drivers for the printer on as many computers as you want to use this printer. For now, tho, you can install on your Toshiba laptop by placing the disk in the laptop's CD drive and follow the prompts on the installation menu. There is no need to uninstall from the Acer. The driver is not like Microsoft software where you only have one key for each installation. You might also be able to get the drivers from the Lexmark website.

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 X2500 Support and Downloads page (see Resources).
Click "Drivers and Downloads."
