Install drivers for local printing

UNIX/Linux

Local printing is supported on many UNIX and Linux platforms, such 
as Sun Solaris and Red Hat.

The Sun Solaris and Linux packages are available on the drivers CD 
and on our Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com. The 
User’s Guide in each package gives detailed instructions for installing 
and using Lexmark printers in UNIX and Linux environments.

All the printer driver packages support local printing using a parallel 
connection. The driver package for Sun Solaris supports USB 
connections to Sun Ray appliances and Sun workstations.

Visit our Lexmark Web site at www.lexmark.com for a complete list of 
supported UNIX and Linux platforms.

What do I do next?

Task

Go to page… 

After you have installed the printer driver on your 
computer, you are set up to print to a local printer. 

We recommend that you also complete “Verify printer 
setup.”
