What does the manual say..... does it tell you how to scan?

Have you tried Vuescan (www.hamrick.com)?

We have no way to tell what make and model your computer is, let alone what
your "service repair" menu is.
Are ther any errors shown, and if so, what are they.

hi !!

your lexmark printer is a 4 in 1 deice, can print, scan , copy and fax as
well . If scan function is not working then i would like to know if you are
getting any error message or not .
Also let me know if printign is working fine or not . If working then try
this for scanning
start >> all programs >> windows photogallery >> click on file menu >>
import from scanners and cameras and double clcik on lexmark icon to scan

Let me know the information i asked you and i assure you i can help you to
make the printer scan as well

Take care

Great !! thats good to know that you have managed to make the printer
working . Now i would like to tell you that everytime you are scanning
something , you have to follow the same steps .

However i do believe that for your x7170 , you must have a program saying
lexmark All in one center , you can also use it for scanning .

Let me know if you need further help.
Cheers !!
