Greetings - I will just suggest a few things (in case you had not tried it some of them).
1. Downloading and installing the latest driver from Lexmark.com under Support
2. Installing a fresh copy of Windows
3. Downloading and installing the latest printer firmware (from Lexmark.com aswell)
4. Leaving the printer's power cable unconnected for some minutes
5. Restarting both the computer and the printer
The list is not in order, so start with the most convenient.

Hello razorback234 try using a different USB cable, do not use USB cable longer than 10ft, try different USB hubs on your computer. More help is available here from lexmark: http://support.lexmark.com/index?page=content&id=SO4473&locale=EN&userlocale=EN_US
