HOWTO: Lexmark Printers

[NoBugs!]

Thanks for the info!

About the alien -t command, shouldn't that be alien -d to make easy to install/uninstall .deb files? Worked for me.

Thanks

Thank you so much for the how-to. In all the times I tried to get my dell A910 to work with linux. This is the first time in many long hours, I got it It only took 10 minutes and I used the Z600 drivers. =D>

all you have to do is find the correct name of the file (it is not the same on all systems).
first, navigate to /etc/rc2.d/ (you can use nautilus or terminal)
cd /etc/rc2.d
then, determine a list of files and pick the one you need.
ls
for example, mine is S20cupsys
then just modify the command to reflect the correct name.
following my example: /etc/rc2.d/S20cupsys restart

sorry if this is unclear at all; just let me know if it is.

peace

It's also a paperweight.

OK, I know I am new to this but I can't figure out how to do all of these things you are talking about doing. I try to add them into the termial and they keep coming up saying that the file isnt found. I could only get the first line entered before the file not found message came up so I stopped.

Can someone post a non-computer geek version on how to do this so I can use my printer or to relieve the rest of the posters from my stupidity just send better instructions to my email?

Thanks
