Do you have a "Restore point" available under System Restore for a time
before the install of SP2? If so, use that and see if it fixes the
problem.

If no joy, try removing the printer drivers using Control Panel
Printers and faxes Delete this printer. Check Lexmark's www site
for a utility to remove drivers and use that next. Restart the computer
and install the latest drivers from Lexmark according to the
instructions.

Let us know.
