Default Lexmark X73 Printer Won't Work with Vista!

Does anybody know what printer driver I can download to make my Lexmark X73
printer work with Vista (it worked fine with XP before!) At the moment the
printer will not "talk" to the computer at all!

That printer is OLDER THAN XP.

It will make an excellent doorstop.

Apparently, Lexmark has decided to make your printer obsolete by not
producing Vista drivers for it. You can contact Lexmark (if you wish) and
ask them why they are not providing drivers. Practically speaking, it's time
for a new printer.

Vista is not XP..

You will find that a new printer is more economical than your museum piece..
