Lexmark is... variable with Linux. Some printers seem to work right out of the box, while others don't work at all. According to the OpenPrinting database, the 2400 isn't too bad (at least not nearly as bad as my C500n) at "Mostly works". They also have a small install walkthrough, which was designed for Dapper, but "*should* work on all versions": <a href="http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Lexmark-2400">http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Lexmark-2400</a> <a href="http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting">http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting </a> Hope that helps, illu45 <div>On 5/4/07, Skip Evans <<a href="mailto:skip@bigskypenguin.com">skip@bigskypenguin.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hey all, Frank the Barber just got a real kick out of being   the inspiration for "*ubunto for Curmudgeons". I'm doing some googling now to see if is Lexmark 2400 3 in 1 is going to work with Xubuntu, and so far it doesn't look good. Is Lexmark still pretty bad when it comes to Linux?
