      It only supports up to Win95. Guess they stopped making the printer, so stopped supporting it.

      You could try the XP driver for the 2030 printer; it may be close enough to work:

      Doesn't look like 2030 drivers are satasfactory - only thing purporting to be an XP driver, seems to be a readme that tells you you can't (great joke - NOT!).

      For a "Windows" printer, there is apparently a LINUX driver for it ... so the Linux guys can write a driver for a totally different OS, and and lexmark can't (won't) write one for XP?
