Re: I CAN'T GET MY PRINTER TO WORK ON MY NEW COMPUTER...
A lot of the time different printer models will have the same drivers, your best bet is to find a compatable Vista driver.. reinstall driver via windows update through Device manager.

Hi,
Sorry to hear you are experiencing that problem. The Lexmark x1150 is actually discontinued. So there is no driver for Windows 8. You can try downloading the Windows Vista driver. If that does not work then you should go to Add Printer on your computer and choose the USB connection. Then it will show you makes and models of printers. Choose Lexmark and then for model look for x1150. If that is not there then choose any one of the AIO models, your printer will work. Good luck!
Also unplug printer usb cable before installing drivers, and start installer file using right mouse button click, and then the option 'Run as administrator. Also disable antivirus/firewall before installing.
http://downloads.lexmark.com/cgi-perl/downloads.cgi?lxkprod=Lexmark+X1150 you seem to have already tried this but make sure that you are using the driver for the right vista (you more than likely have the 32 bit which will just be listed as Vista) but when you download it save it to the desktop and then when you double click it to run it and it gives you the option to run updates dont do it. it can mess up the install and cause complications later but it isnt nessecary. Hope this helps
