Lexmark Printer X75 does not work
Hi everyone! I have tried several times to install the lexmark X75 on my F14 (and also in F13) but it didn´t work. I have tried the following guides for the printer: http://home.online.no/~enrio/ and: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/hardware-peripherals/13305-driver-lexmark-x74-x75.html both guides didn´t work. When i install the driver everything works fine. Then I add the printer in cups and that also works fine. But then, when I try to print a testpage cups says: gestoppt /rastertolxx74.c:1792: Unknown option job-uuid=urn:uuid:36e5e988-d359-3c30-68a8-f35f70e14833. / That´s all and the printer does nothing at all. I couldn´t find a solution to this problem. HOpe someone can help me or encountered the same problem (which is of course not suprising with lexmark printers). Thx Guys, Benjamin. // -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines

It sets us free. lexmark may 'support linux' by offering linux compatible(?) drivers, but their support of 'open source' seems lacking, support of Free Software (c) is just not there. charles zeitler Love is the law, love under will. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines

I have a Lexmark Z22 printer that gradually became unusable for this reason. I replaced it with a Samsung laser printer with built-in Fedora driver support. Unless Lexmark open-sources its drivers, their printers aren't worth the trouble. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines

My wife just got a new Lexmark X2670 all-in-one printer with her new laptop that we want to share. I can't find any drivers for it for F11. Does anyone else have this printer and if so have you found a way to make it work?
