Vladislav, As far as I know, the Lexmark 7000 will only work under Windows 3.x and Windows 95. It provides a DOS interface only under Windows through a driver. You cannot boot to true DOS and use the printer. It also has no NT or OS/2 drivers. I doubt that out of the box the printer will work with Linux. If somone knows different, please let me know.
