USB Printer Help
Stryker:
I have had a Lexmark X83 multifunction printer for about a year now. I'm now moving all of my computers over to linux. I've checked the lexmark site and they supply no linux drivers for it. I'd like to be able to install it onto RedHat 7.3, any suggestions?
voidmain:
Lexmark has generally been pretty proprietary about their printer languages and drivers. However, I just did a search on their web site and came up with some stuff you might want to look at. I haven't looked closely at it as I don't have a Lexmark printer. HP printers are supported very well.

they say it shows a complete list. It include most versions of windows and most macs. But nothing linux wise. Is there a general driver or anything that will work?

Whoops, checking.....

I have a Lexmark z52...no driver is available yet for my Redhat 7.3 system.
As a general rule stick with Epson or HP for Linux printing. Check out
