Installing LexMark X83 Printer-Cannot Load

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.print_fax (More info?)

Disconnect the printer. Follow Bruce Sanderson's instructions on completely

Then reboot the PC.

Install the Lexmark software and do NOT reconnect the printer to the PC
until the software tells you to do so.
