Why won't Lexmark X3470 drivers install?

Cannot install Lexmark 5400 printer after re-formated computer?

  • Hello. My Lexmark 5400 series printer cannot install. The reasons it is saying is that i need a minimum of 800mhz speed and also recommended i have over 500mb memory install. I'm sure my processor is fast enough and im sure i have sufficient memory installed. More so... the Lexmark 5400 printer 3 in 1 (printer, scanner, Fax) worked fine before i had to re-format the computer. What is the issue here? Can some one tell me steps I can take? I tried to updating the drivers through packard bell website.... it doesnt sort the issue. Maybe i should install my samsung CD? (if i can find it)... it seemed to update many items and drivers i think... i dont know. Is there any other way to install it? I'm at a flux.

  • Answer:

    Here is the proper way to install it. Remove all the printer software and start over in this manner. Unplug USB cable from your Lexmark, poer it on, and begin a FRESH install. Re-connect the USB when it asks you to, not before. Now it will finish the install. Reboot and windows will find the new hardware. That't it. Retry printing and it should work first hand. USE the LEXMARK and not the SAMSUNG CD. You are confusing the drivers and make sure you only have that printer installed and no others.
