If it's for Windows 2000/XP, try [url= http://support.lexmark.com/index?locale=en&page=product&productCode=LEXMARK_Z735_COLOR_JETPRINTER&segment=SUPPORT&userlocale=EN_UK&frompage=null#1 ]here[/url]

If not, they have some information on there about windows Vista/7. If it's for OSX/Linux, then i don't know, sorry!

Everything I've ever plugged into my laptop whilst running Windows 7, has had the driver installed automatically - by Windows 7

The 32-bit driver is [url= http://downloads.lexmark.com/downloads/cpd/cjr730EN.exe ]here[/url] and 64-bit is [url= http://downloads.lexmark.com/downloads/cpd/cjs730EN.exe ]here.[/url] you can tell which one you need by looking at the info in [i]Control Panel / System and Security / System.[/i]

If they don't work, you'll have to do better than "no joy" and tell us what symptoms you're getting.

As a rule of thumb, with USB devices you generally get better results installing the driver -without- the device connected.

I actually found Lexmark tech support very helpful (if a little hard work) when I had a nightmare setting my wireless printer up.

Saying that, it's a god awful temperamental POS and I will never buy Lexmark again.

Good good.

My limited experience with Lexmark printers is that it's often cheaper to replace the printer than buy ink for the sodding things.

That can't be right, that would make it better than a MAC. Stop lying.
