Hello,

I've got a lexmark 3200 up and running just fine, but it did take
some work to get there.  

The linuxprinting.org site was very helpful, specifically this page:
http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_driver.cgi?driver=lxm3200

I went with the PDQ solution after having trouble with CUPS.  I'm
not doubting that this *can* be done with CUPS, mind you, it just 
didn't work for me.

Take a look at the foomatic section of linuxprinting.org, read and
re-read the page listed above, and with some luck you'll be printing
(if you're not already)!

Feel free to send email if you have more questions.
