In the next window select EPSON under Manufacturers and your printer model under Printers.Ħ. Select the port the printer is connected to from the drop down window beside Use an Existing Port, click NEXT.ĥ. The ADD PRINTER wizard window will appear select Add a Local Printer.Ĥ. If you do not see ADD PRINTER, right-click in the PRINTERS window and select ADD PRINTER from the menu.ģ. Click on START, CONTROL PANEL and PRINTERS.Ģ. The resident driver installation should only be used if the printer is not detected and installed.ġ. If the driver does not automatically install, you can follow the steps below to install a resident driver which is part of Windows Vista.

Simply connect the printer to your computer and power it on. Windows Vista should automatically detect and install devices attached to the computer. In any Windows environment, the printer itself becomes a dummy terminal and all changes to the printer will be over-ridden by the application or the operating system. Then hit the Scan button and it will scan! It is a good idea to hit the preview button first and let it find your picture. Select it and it will bring up the scan dialog, where you can select Color Picture, Black and White, etc.

It should present you with a selection dialog where you should see your lexmark AIO.

Once you download, install it, and get it started, to scan a picture go to :įile->Acquire, and select 'From Scanner or Camera' Once you find this application, it should be pretty easy to scan.Īs a third option, if you don't have a graphics application, I like to use, which is a free piece of software you can find at If you go to Start->All Programs->Lexmark 5400 Series, you should see something along the lines of All in One Center (may be slightly differently named, but it's in this folder). The printer also probably came with a software suite for scanning as well. This is usually done by going to File->Acquire in the application, and then selecting your scanner. If you have a favorite graphics application like photoshop or paint shop pro, you can scan directly into these apps using the 'Acquire' option. I'm also going to use windows XP in any directions I give, but if you are using Vista, it will be pretty close. First, I'm assuming you are using some flavor of windows, but if not this may not be completely accurate.
