When the printer turns on, reconnect it to your computer. Then try to scan again once the computer fully recognizes the USB connection (if USB connected).

REAL SOLUTION:

1. Make sure you have the regular printer driver installed. If you don't, you can grab it from the Lexmark website and install it.
2. Next, keep your USB cords plugged in but turn your printer off.
3. Download the All-In-One Center Software here.
4. Unpack the archive, open the "Applications" folder, and double-click Setup. This will install the application - it can take a bit.
5. Once the application is installed, turn the printer on and try a test scan. If it works, you're good and can quit reading.
6. If you get an error when running a test scan, don't panic. Reinstall the regular printer driver, using the "Update Driver" option that appears.
7. Restart your computer.
   
8. Do a new test scan. This should bring up the All In One Center's loading screen, which will start searching for programs (this can reallllly take a while). When it's done, everything will be working beautifully again!
