Not particularly good news. If you want an All-in-one printer that works easily, try an HP

I was surprised recently to discover that Lexmark had Linux drivers for a particular printer. Now I find that for most of their printers, they don't list it. In any case, I would contact them and ask.

There is also ndiswrapper which allows use of Windows drivers--not sure how it works with Printers + I have never used it.

Another option might be Turboprint.
