View Full Version : Installing Printer software

Am installing a Lexmark 4270 all-in-one printer. Once I insert the software
CD and run the program I get the following message "the file OLEAUT32.DLL is
out of date. This program requires a newer version". My previous printer
Lexmark Z23 worked fine. Can some one help.

What version are the drivers you are installing? OLEAUT32.DLL is part of
the Win Me operating system and protected against change by Win Me's
System File Protection and can only be updated when accompanied by the
necessary security certificates. The version included with Win Me is
v2.40.4515 and I am unaware of Microsoft having released any updated file
for use with Win Me.

Win Me drivers for the Lexmark X4270 can be downloaded from
http://downloads.lexmark.com/cgi-perl/downloads.cgi?ccs=229:1:0:439:0:0&emeaframe=&fileID=1355

I have Windows XP Home version, the Lexmark download is cjB3300EN.exe that I
downloaded from Lexmark web site.
