[newbie] printer and mouse questions

[rich]

Hello everyone.

I have a couple of questions.  I have a Xerox XJ8C inkjet printer and need
to get it working in linux.  I don't care if it prints color, all I need is
black.

ALso,  I have a Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer (The one with no ball).  It
shows up as a Generic Mouse PS/2 if I run DrakConf and go to hardware
configuration.  How can I get it to work.  I want the scroll wheel to work.

Also,  where is a good source that I can find answers such as these.  I am
very new to Linux and just installed mandrake 7.0 last night.

Thanks,

Rich Foreman
