Unpack the printer
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.
After you have installed the drivers on your computer, you are ready to set up the printer.
Go to “Unpack the printer” on page 9.

If you purchased a multifunction printer (MFP) that copies, faxes, and scans, refer to the
documentation that came with the device to see if furniture or other hardware needs to
be set up first.
