Lexmark X73 under Ubuntu?

Does anyone know how to set up a Lexmark X73 printer/scanner combo
under Ubuntu.  BAck when I used Mandrake 9.1, I remember that I
somehow got it to work, but I have tried everything I remember doing
and neither the printer nor the scanner work at all.  Under Mandrake,
the scanner was automatically detected and worked fine.  I had to use
the driver for the z42 to get the printer working, and then I could
only make it print in black or in 3-color, but not with both
cartridges, no matter how I tried.  At least it worked though. 
Anybody else have one of these and have it working?  I think they were
a pretty popular item.  I hate that I have to boot into Windows and
fire up explore2fs just to print a document.

Hopefully,
Kent
