Er... no. I've got a Lexmark X4690 and have tried a few times to get it
to print from Linux, to no avail. It is allegedly possible but I always
come up against a brick wall at some point so now I just boot into
Windows on my laptop if I need to print anything out (which is quite
rare these days). I might have another go if I'm bored one day but it's
a long way down my list of computer jobs. It doesn't even like *Windows*
very much, it's supposed to scan wirelessly to a Windows machine but
always barfs whenever I try so I just shove a memory card or USB stick
in and scan to that whenever I need it.

I have often been warned about Lexmark printers. I never even consider them. Neil -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
