Hooking up a Lexmark printer
 
Hello,
I am new to Linux and I am liking it a lot! I am trying to figure out if I can use my Lexmark printer. Would anyone happen to have any helpful information? Thanks in advance.

Mike

What is the model name and how do you connect it? ie is it an old LPT connection or a newer USB connection?

You can check for level of support here:

Note that Lexmark printers don't have great support on Linux, but it may have improved.
