I need printers for Lexmark, HP, and Epson for use in Fedora 9
 
I have three printers for use, my HP psc 1310, a new Epson CX 7400, and a Lexmark x1240.

Where can I find drivers for one or more of these printers.

Thanks

Welcome to LQ!!

What version ("distro") of Linux do you have?

Have you tried installing any of them? The Linux printing SW includes drivers for many printers--all you have to do is run the installer, and see if the driver is there.

Next stop would be the mfg's website. At least with HP, there's a good chance it will be there. With Epson there is a site just for Linux issues. I don't have it, but Google will find it.

Distro's of Linux
 
Since I'm convinced there is a better world than the Microsoft one, I've tried several versions of Linux. Currently, I'm trying Ubuntu 8.04.1 and Puppy 4.0. I like the Puppy version because it's much faster, but Ubuntu seems to have more available information.

Thanks for the advice, I'll check those suggestions,
