Lexmark x4550 wireless scanning

I have a Lemark x4550 wirelessly connected to my WindowsXP desktop
computer. It prints fine however I can't get it to scan. Using the control
panel on the printer it asks me to select the computer to which I want to
scan, I choose the computer and it starts "Downloading Application List".
This usually results in an error stating it "Cannot retrieve application
list". However sometimes it will give me a list of applications and if I
select one of these and try and scan an error screen comes up stating the
scan failed. There's also no scan icon in the Lexmark Imaging Studio. Any
suggestions.

Besides letting printing access thorough filewall / anti-virus, you
need to let the enhanced :exmark control "softwares" thorough.
