I am trying to scan from my Lexmark X4650 and I get a message that says the application I need has been moved or deleted. What do I do?

You can download the drivers for your Lexmark X4650 at www.Lexmark.com. Just choose the Operating System of your computer.

A quick fix for most communication errors can be achieved by resetting the printer and/or rebooting the PC. Simply disconnect the printer from your computer. Reboot your pc. Unplug and re-plug the printer into the power source to reset it. When the printer turns on, reconnect it to your computer. Then try to print again once the computer fully recognizes the USB connection.

If that doesn't help, try the steps below:

1. Disconnect the printer from your computer.

2. Rebrick (pull out power supply, black box where the power cord is plugged in at the back of the printer, and put it back after 30 seconds).

2. On your computer, go to Control Panel > Printers and Faxes.

3. Delete the Lexmark print object.

4. Reboot your pc.

5. When your pc turns on, reconnect the printer.

6. Wait until your pc fully recognizes the USB connection. To check, go to Control Panel > Printers and Faxes. If you see a new Lexmark print object in the list again, then try to print again.

Make sure the Lexmark X4650 printer driver is updated. You can update your printer driver by downloading and installing the downloadable driver from the Lexmark website at http://bit.ly/iofMNC. Select your operating system, download and execute the file. Try to scan again and see the difference.
You can also try to lower the scan resolution (dpi setting) on your computer by launching the Lexmark Productivity Studio application. Select Scan > on the "What are you scanning?" screen, click Custom Settings > decrease the dpi setting to 200 or 150. Try to scan again.
You may also use third party scan softwares to decrease the scan file size if results are still too large for you.

Try to re-install the Lexmark X4650 driver. Visit the Lexmark website at http://bit.ly/iofMNC. Select your operating system, download the driver and execute the file.

If you know how to delete files and programs delete this Lexmark program and reinstall. Re installing it without deleting the old one will not help

To scan documents for editing and converting it to a PDF file, you will need to install the Lexmark OCR scan software. It is available in the installation disk that came with your Lexmark printer (not available for online download). Just insert the disk into your computer and execute the install application. If you don't have the disk, please contact Lexmark technical support for assistance. Thanks.

look for the option to add it manually

Hi,

Have you tried restarting your PC? Once you do this, unplug your printer power cord for a few minutes, uninstall your printer from your computer and reinstall the software. Then plug your power cord back into your printer and try printing your document once more.

Hope this solves your problem.
Best wishes,
