Lexmark Printer - Z715

[Ed Fletcher]

Hi All:

I installed Ubuntu Warty on a friends computer tonight.  Went through 
the whole install and the last thing I did was to set up the printer. 
And, as luck would have it, there are no linux drivers for it.  The 
printer is a Lexmark Z715 USB colour inkjet printer.  I checked the 
Lexmark site.  No linux drivers for that model.  Tried faking it by 
selecting different Lexmark models in the printer configuration but none 
of them worked.

Anyone know of a possible solution?  She needs to be able to print and 
she is not about to buy a new printer.

I know that Lexmark isn't supported well under Linux but that's what 
she's got so I either come up with a way for her to print to it or leave 
her using WinXP Home.  :-(
