I wish I could help. Mine was working (Lexmark 5200 series) and now does
not. It does everything but print. When I go to print it sends me a save
screen and when I close the screen I get an error message. never used to do
that. I don't know what changed because I didn't change anything.

go to lexmark website and click on vista downloads and download vista drivers
for your z816 printer. I deleted mine (5200 series) and then went to the
website and downloaded from there. My disc that came with my printer wasn't
good enough or new enough I guess.

I am also having trouble downloading the printer driver. I have a LG laptop
with windows vista and an ASUS with windows XP. My lexmark all in one center
X1150 works perfectly on the Asus XP windows. I have tried downloading the
driver for windows vista lexmark upgrade however still get the error message
the others have encountered.
