Lexmark Z42
 
Color inkjet printer, max. 2400x1200 dpi, works Mostly
Recommended Driver: gutenprint (Home page)
Generic Instructions: CUPS, no spooler
 

Comments

With the simple driver "drv_z42" provided by Alwin Stolk one can at least print in up to 1200x600 dpi. There is also support in Gimp-Print 4.2 and especially on the CVS of Gimp-Print.

A salesman described the Z42 as identical to the Z52, only slower. However, the Z52 driver binary provided by Lexmark only printed garbage.

Consumables/Refills: 2 cartridges (color and black or color and photo)
