Lexmark provides no Linux drivers for this printer, so you are out of luck.
Please ask Lexmark for Linux drivers, if you recently bought this printer bring it back to the shop and ask for a refund or buy a printer with Linux support.

Drivers for this printer are available for this printer on the Lexmark UK site, but they do not install citing a Lua error.

"Lua error detected: While parsing install.lua: install.lua:118: Overflow detected: Not enough space for widget."
