I have a computer running Red Hat Fedora Core 4, and a Lexmark X83 USB printer. The printer is detected by KUDZU, but I can't print to it.

Does anyone know how to make linux print to this printer? Lexmark doesn't support linux printing to this printer. Also, this printer has scanning capabilities, and I would like to be able to scan documents in Windows. If I can't find a solution I might have to go back to Windows (which I would rather not do for this system!) Thanks

Have you tried the DrvZ42 driver? I am not a Lexmark user, but I ave found that by using other drivers on printers from Minolta I can usualy get them to print very well from AIX and RedHat.

It is available here:
