I installed ZoneAlarm firewall yesterday and the 1st alert I got was
(LEXPPS.EXE trying to act as server) I blocked it. I have a Lexmark
printer,scanner,fax combo.
Could someone tell me if this is something to worry about?
Thanks alot for any help you can offer.

Hi, thanks . I'm still blocking it. Doesn't seem to bother the way the
printer works.
