Z65 (z65 driver)
Lexmark Z33 (z35 driver)
Lexmark Z33 (z35 driver)

but that said this driver might work with yours just give it a try

First off Download the driver here

then save the file to your desktop in a folder called "lexmark" (just easier)
ok now we begin

Code: Select all

cd Desktop/lexmark
tar -xvzf CJLZ600LE-CUPS-1.0-1.TAR.gz
tail -n +143 z600cups-1.0-1.gz.sh > install.tar.gz
tar -xvzf install.tar.gz
sudo alien -t z600cups-1.0-1.i386.rpm
sudo alien -t z600llpddk-2.0-1.i386.rpm
sudo tar xvzf z600llpddk-2.0.tgz -C /
sudo tar xvzf z600cups-1.0.tgz -C /
sudo ldconfig
cd /usr/share/cups/model
sudo gunzip Lexmark-Z600-lxz600cj-cups.ppd.gz
sudo /etc/init.d/cups restart

Now go to System->Administration->Printing->New->Printer
choose the z600 driver

hope this works for you

but cut it down and make it work on Ultimate Edition 2.3

i managed to get my Lexmark x1170 working in Ultimate Edition 2.3 64bit (it even scans )
