Does anyone know where they can be found, as I cannot find anything more than the linux developers pack on the manufacturer's site. It's a USB only printer, works great under windoze, and I cannot find anything with Linux. I really need these drivers, please, help!

Most of these are "winprinters" much like winmodems and depend on the OS, winsleaze in this case to do most of the work.

You can look at :
http://www.linuxprinting.org/printer_list.cgi?make=Lexmark

and the Lexmark forum for more help, but I doubt there is support.

Best to buy real hardware printers, that specify one or both of these: PCL or PostScript support.
