Put your pointer on the taskbar and right click, there is a toolbars option, see if lexmark is listed in the toolbars, check it and hopefully you get what you want

There are several ways to scan. Place your document face down on the glass. If you have the Lexmark software loaded and running its monitor program, either press the scan button (the second button) on the printer or launch the Lexmark Imaging Studio (Start > All Programs > Lexmark 2300 Series > Lexmark Imaging Studio or double click on the shortcut on the desktop) and click one of the Scan options (pictures or text).
The All-in-one Center will open and you can adjust the scan settings and the destination for the scan. Click Scan Now to scan.
If you have Vista, you can also scan to Paint. In Windows 7, both Paint and Windows Fax and Scan will also acquire scans.
If you have problems, try a new USB cable or connecting to a different port. Scanners require bi-directional communication with the computer and can fail even when the printer works.
Cindy Wells (We had a scanner that would preview but not scan due to a bad cable. So it can give an intermittent issue.)
Go to http://downloads.lexmark.com, and follow the instructions on the LEXMARK downloads page on how to load a VISTA COMPATIBLE driver for your machine. If you still have problems, contact Lexmark TECHNICAL SUPPORT on the same page.
i went to control panel and typed in scan. clicked on "scanners and cameras". hit "scan profiles". chose lexmark. hit "add profile". it wouldn't save so i hit "preview first" and that made it physically scan and it showed up on the screen. after that I could hit name it and "save profile" and i got my papers onto the comp. i can't figure out how to get the papers out of the control panel format tho. also my sis's comp is high tech so i don't know how much use this will be. but if you get this far and the files copied out of the control panel format plz let me know.
I had this same problem.
For some reason when the printer installs, the scanner is disabled.
You will need to be on a user with administrative rights to complete this fix.
Also be sure you have downloaded and istalled the latest drivers from Lexmarks site.
Right click my computer.
Select manage from the dropdown menu.
Press continue if a UAC popup comes up.
In the left pane click Device Manager.
From the list of devices, expand "Imaging devices".
Right click on the lexmark xxxx-xxxx series.
Select enable.
Windows should automatically find the driver you installed and the scanner should would without a hitch now.
Hope this helps ya!
