Sorry for being picky, but I'm saying it anyway ;-):
the kernel enables print*ing* support
prin*ter* support is done by a program called ghostscript
On the above mentioned page (The Unix Printer Compability Database), you will
see:
a) if your printer is supported
b) which ghostscript driver supports your printer
There is quite a number of Lexmark printers which is rated 'perfectly' :-).
