In Linux, this is a printer and nothing more. Lexmark may eventually make a driver for this to scan, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

I've created a SANE backend for Lexmark X1100 scanners.

It does grayscale, or colour scans at these resolutions:
75x75, 150x150, 300x300, 600x600, 600x1200

You can select the scan size from:
Wallet, 3x5, 4x6, 5x7, 8x10, Letter.

The driver has been tested on the X1180, and X1185 models, but it should work for all X1100 series scanners. You can get the Lexmark backend from my website: http://ca.geocities.com/freshshelf@rogers.com/scanner_driver/download.html

Yes, after compiling form CVS X1150 works.
Thanks for the driver. Anyway I can't give it nothing more than 6, as I can get nearly good image only after applying a whole series of effects in GIMP.
So... if you already have it - you can use it, but bying it is not recommended.

Sorry about the previous post.
Just could not find the page settings window (what a lame), but I have an excuse - it was REALLY well hidden.
This scanner works as well as it can.
