I am afraid that Lexmark drivers for Vista and Windows 7 do not directly support scanning.

They suggest you use Windows Scanners and Cameras or Photo Gallery for Scanning.
Not a great solution. Lexmark are not the best for supporting their machines.

Yeah I seen that but to be honest I don't understand it.......what can I go into for this to work using 'windows scanner and camera or photo gallery' (I know I am a hopeless case!!) I have now uninstalled and installed and downloaded upto date drivers but still no joy
Thanks for your reply Dulchie......
