I am running Windows XP (have been since I bought PC) and a Lexmark X125 all-in-one printer. It worked fine for a while, but stopped printing. The icon at bottom of screen no longer has a diamond, now has a red "X". Have uninstalled and reinstalled software several times. When I do this, printer will work a few days then quit again. Once when reinstalling, I was told the software was not compatible with Windows XP and the driver was not digitally signed. I downloaded a supposedly compatible and signed driver from windows website, worked a few days, then quit again. I am at my wit's end. I can't keep uninstalling/reinstalling every few days to use my printer. Please, someone help. Where can I find a driver that is compatible and digitally signed. I'm pulling my hair out here. HELP!!!!

How about the lexmark site, since you didn't mention any detail like where
you got your supposedly compatible driver:
http://downloads.lexmark.com/cgi-perl/downloads.cgi?ccs=229:1:0:346:0:0&emeaframe=&searchMethod=StandardSearch&category=Driver

And to uninstall completely follow Bruces site, pay attention about lexmark
printers towards bottom of page:
