I did manage to get most of them working as I said before. But lexmark is a printer that is seriously heavy on ink and everytime there is a new one there is a new printing language to go with it. Much like the canons. OH and both companies can't see the light and refuse bluntly to assist or give info about there printer so that we can get our own drivers developed.
