If your printer is already connected to your network, try to assign a static IP address to your printer to prevent it from getting a new IP address from your router. To do that, just get the IP address of your printer, open a browser and type in the IP in the address bar of your browser. Once you have the embedded web server of your printer, click on Settings > Network Ports > TCP/IP > Uncheck "Enable DHCP" > Submit.
Once you have set a static IP, resintall the Lexmark software. It would be best to use an updated driver. Just go to http://bit.ly/VuhrpF to download the updated driver. After reinstalling the driver, check if the firmware for your printer is up to date. Just go to http://bit.ly/PZaAmK to download the firmware update.

Cant connect to wirless network

if you can connect to your wirless AP from other devices such as mobile or other laptop this means that you have to check the following:
1- delete then re-create your wireless profile .
2- make sure that your wireless adapter is cofigured to obtain automatic ip address not static.
but if you are not able to connect with other devices , then make sure that you have the correct security password (if any) or check the configuration of your Access Point.

The Canon is trying to connect to a wireless router or wireless access point which is connected to your computer network. Your Sprint 3g device is a wireless broadband device for Internet connection and cannot connect to the Canon using this device.
You need a wireless card that connects to the wireless router or wireless access point.
Otherwise you can connect to your printer using a printer cable.

I think you may find that, as in my HP Printer, the Wireless through my laptop has to talk to my Broadband Router which in turn talks wirelessly to my printer.
You are right, wireless and WI FI are slightly different standards.

Cant install the drivers for my R290 it said cant communicate with my pc

Make sure your usb cable is properly connected. Turn your printer "ON" only when during the installation say turn it "ON" or when it starts searching for the printer. Good luck!
