No desktop icon for printer options to open scan, copy, etc...

I installed lexmark x3470 printer on my toshiba satellite laptop and there is no deskop icon to open up the actions you want to do with the printer like scan, copy, etc... I had this printer loaded on other computer which was an actual desktop and it provided an icon which would even let you see numerous actions you could use and that was with a XP operating system. I am currentyl using a Vista Home Premium Edition. Is there somewhere i can get the desktop icon or do i need to do something else to resolve the issue?

Install the driver and application software for vista.

check the lexmark support website if they have vista update for your printer (driver and application)

if you're talking about the windows printer icon that show on the lower right corner..it will show up only if there is printing job in que or pending.
