Lexmark Z700 Series Printer

Posiedon · 09-18-2003, 08:29 PM

I was wondering if any one out there has a Lexmark Z705 printer. As of right now, I noticed (after getting this as a gift) that the Z705 does not have any drivers for Linux. My question is, does any one out there know of any 3rd party software/drivers that enable a printer that has no Manufactured drivers out, work in linux. Please lemme know.... thanks P

Visit www.turboprint.de/english.html, download turboprint and start printing...
This an app that has a pile of drivers, unfortunately unavailable outside the app...
If this doesn't work let me know...

Browsing the list of supported printers I came to the conclusion that they might not have a driver for your model.
Don't worry, tell them : go to the same site, click on supported printers (left column) and then follow the link to the feedback page. They build drivers in 2-3 months if requested by users.

Another hint: visit www.linuxprinting.org/printer_list.cgi or join their forum. Their info is a little bit out of dated but it's worth a try.
