Lexmark X342n Scanner Interface Driver Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit

I will be the first to admit that when it comes to drivers etc, I'm not an authority or really a person with a great deal of knowledge etc.

I have a Lexmark x342n All in One printer (print/copy/fax) and have not used it for quite some time as I just use the university printers. However with university being on holidays I was hoping to use the scanner however, now that I have Windows 7 (I used to use Windows XP) everything but the Scanner Interface has a driver for it when I plugged it in.

I have tried on the Lexmark site and used the drivers there however these all create a new printer in my control panel -> printers area that does not print at all, yet the printer that appears in the same area when Windows 7 automatically installed drivers upon plugin will print but not scan. When I try and find a driver for the Scanner Interface it just says that "device driver did not install properly"
