Press winkey-break(or start/run 'sysdm.cpl') ,/Hardware tab Open the Device manager and click the + sign next to Ports(COM & LPT).
select the printer port, e.g. ECP Printer Port (LPT1). Port Settings tab check the 'Enable legacy Plug and Play detection'

If your Lexmark is attached to the USB port of your PC, then it may be that
this port is being 'powered off'.

Open the Device manager and click the + sign next to USB Root Hub and click
on the Power Management tab.

make sure that 'Allow computer to turn off this device to save power' is
unchecked.
