I currently have a Lexmark printer installed, but when I open up the Hardware
section, I can't locate the printer. It does exist at the bottom of my
desktop. I'm pretty sure I need to Uninstall it to get new drivers. I just
need to know how to find it , so I can uninstall it. Thanks in advance for
any help.

On Vista Ultimate launch Printmanagement.msc and delete the printer, then
the drivers.

On Vista Home open the printers folder and delete the printer, then right
click in the folder and Run as administrator / Server Properties and delete
the print driver.

Download the uninstall utility for your printer from Lexmark and run the
tool to remove any additional software installed.
