lexmark X1195 printer & Canon 5200f scanner

[The Wassermans]

I have inherited a Lexmark x1195 printer.  I used to use it in Windows.

Ubuntu recognises the printer but, of course it doesn't work as is in
Linux.

The printer comes with an installation disk for Macintosh.  I recall
someone saying that it may be possible to use Mac drivers to run that
printer in Ubuntu (8.04).

Please can I have some advice on this?

Also, I have a Canon 5200f scanner.  Doesn't work in Ubuntu!

I have been told that HP is the hardware to go for.  Given that I might
simply decided to replace my hardware, I would appreciate
recommendations on a good - all in one colour printer/scanner(with film
facilities)/etc.

I do have a Hp laserjet 6L which I will continue to use for b&w
printing.  It works well.
