Drivers for Lexmark x5470 disapear after the laptop is turned on.

Laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-237 runs on XP Home. After installation of all in one printer Lexmark 5470 all works perfect until i turn it off. The message i get for a print command is "you must first install a printer" or "reinstall printer drivers". On the windows control panel on printer and faxes page the printer icon is gone. However, on the scanners and cameras page the 5470 scanner icon existsts and works fine. All installed files and user guides exist. I also downloaded drivers from Lexmark site just in case, but made no difference all the same problem. Does anybody know what the problem is and the solution? Its frustrating tu reinstall software every time i need to print.

Hey,

Fully uninstall the lexmark from your computer, everything, delete the printer from printers and faxes and make sure there is no trace of the printer on the computer.

Then get the files you downloaded and install the printer again.

Everything should work normally.



Thanks,
Ekse

How to install XP in toshiba Satellite L45-S7423 laptop

You cannot uninstall Windows Vista, but you can reinstall your previous operating system, which then replaces Windows Vista. To reinstall your old operating system, you must have the original installation disc. Back up your programs and files, insert the installation disc into your computer, and then reinstall the old operating system. To regain the hard disk space used by Windows Vista, reformat the disk during the reinstallation process. After reinstalling your previous operating system, reinstall your programs and files.
