Post How do I configure Lexmark Printer when not on Linux Mint list?


I have Lexmark Pro 901 printer which is not in the printer folder so I can configure it. How do I get it there? Also, it is wireless, so is there something I have to do to activate that? I'm a newbie to Linux Mint, so need lots of help.

I installed Linux Mint alongside Windows XP, but the DVD window didn't open and when I start my computer, it doesn't allow me to select Windows XP if I want, but only opens Linux Mint. I do have the official guide for Linux Mint. I did download a Bit 32 DVD earlier, but since I didn't know how to install it, I didn't use it, but instead ordered the one from OS and installed it which happened to be bit 64. I would like to uninstall that and use my downloaded bit 32 DVD. Can I do that, and, if so, how?

Also, I tried to download Opera and it only allows me to download the X84/64 type and it gives me an error when it tried to install. I know they have a bit 32 version, but could not get to it.

SOLVED! I did finally get to Windows on my computer. Also found out my Lexmark printer not compatible with Linux Mint 16.
