Lexmark (All-in-One) X5250 printer


I have a Lexmark AIO printer/scannner
The model is X5250

I cannot find a way to let it communicate with (whatever which Linuxdistro) SuSE

Someone any suggestion?

(I do not want to replace it: it works fine in Windows )

did you find a driver for your 5250? (I'm trying to connect an AIO 5150)
