UNIX/Linux
Local printing is supported on many UNIX and Linux platforms, such as Sun Solaris and Red Hat.
If your drivers CD does not contain any UNIX/Linux printer driver packages, contact the place you
purchased your printer to see if your printer is supported.
Some printer driver packages are available on the drivers CD. The UNIX/Linux User’s Guide in each
package gives detailed instructions for installing and using printers in UNIX and Linux environments.
The Sun Solaris and Linux packages are available on the drivers CD and on the Lexmark Web site at
www.lexmark.com. The UNIX/Linux User’s Guide in each package gives detailed instructions for
installing and using Lexmark printers in UNIX and Linux environments.
