I downloaded the usb drivers from the lexmark site, but when i make i get the following huge output:

etc etc etc etc....it was too long too post here...
I need this damn printer for school stuff this weekend....

Hi.

Do you have your kernel sources installed?

Dave

thanks! that was it

I installed: LEXUSB-SCANNER-1.0-1 and z810llpddk-2.0-3.i386.rpm.
But still a problem...
I have a Lexmark Z815...but the printer configuration can't find the device.
And i can't find the driver in the list...
The Lexmark site has little info.

Hmmm.

What are you using to configure the printer?

Dave

System Settings > Printing

Any other ways?
My old printer was located automaticly so this is all new to me.

Try going to:
localhost:631
in your web browser. That's the CUPS configuration page for your machine.

You might want to try using a driver for a different Lexmark printer (try one from the same series).

Dave

I need a username and password for Cups.
But i never set one :S

Use root and root's password.

ok, i'm in
i guess the usb printer device is /dev/usb/lp0
Then i selected USB Printer#1...but then in the list of models/drivers still nothing, not even 1 lexmark there...

OK.

What do you get when you run:
rpm -ql z810llpddk

rpm -ql z810llpddk

Could you give me a link to the web page where you got the driver? I can't find it on the Lexmark site.

http://www.lexmark.com/US/products/i...wnload_v2.html


thanks for your help so far
But i need to go now, lets continue tomorrow.

Thanks again!

Ah.

What you have is the development kit for writing drivers. The stuff you have won't actually give you a working driver.

You might have some luck following these instructions:
http://users.netwit.net.au/~pursang/lex.html

Dave

hello!

i tried with those drivers, but it cant detect a printer.
Since my printer wasn't detected automaticly by kudzu should i load the module manually?
USB printers are quite a pain...
