Thanks, now my x6170 works on kubuntu 10.10. At first it didn’t work but when I changed URI from usb://lexmark/something_6100series to z55:/dev/usb/lp0 then it worked. Btw, driver’s URL is incorrect. I found the same driver from http://www.filewatcher.com/m/CJLZ55LE-CUPS-1.0-1.TAR.GZ.6602118.0.0.html. Direct link: ftp://ftp.itu.edu.tr/Mirror/Pardus/pisi/source/contrib-2009/CJLZ55LE-CUPS-1.0-1.TAR.GZ

What specifically doesn’t work? RC6 is the last one I used and it worked fine. Are you receiving an error?

@ Lee Wilkerson

I downloaded libstdc5++ from http://packages.debian.org/lenny/i386/libstdc++5/download

It worked perfectly on Ubuntu 10.04, too. I only had to change

‘sudo /etc/rc2.d/S19cupsys restart’

into

‘sudo /etc/rc2.d/S50cups restart’ as instructed, because in the directory cupsys was replaced by cups.
Other webpages’ instructions didn’t work, probably ’cause the
following was in another order
# extract the driver.
tar -xvzf CJLZ55LE-CUPS-1.0-1.TAR.GZ

# fix the sh script, the sh script is broken for newer systems.
tail -n +143 lexmarkz55-CUPS-1.0-1.gz.sh > install.tar.gz

# extract the contents produced by tail
tar -xvzf install.tar.gz

I was wondering if by using alien to convert the .rpm files into .deb files would make it for other installations on other machines.Should I write:

# extract the tgz’s to / putting the files in their right place
sudo tar -xvzf z55llpddk-2.0.deb -C /
sudo tar -xvzf lexmarkz55-CUPS-1.0.deb -C /

too???

Thanks a lot!!!

Use /etc/init.d/cups restart instead of the various /etc/rc2.d/Sxxcupsys restart variations. They just refer back to the /etc/init.d script.

On Karmic Kaola (and on later variations), libstdc++5 doesn’t exist. You can install it from http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/i386/libstdc++5/download.

I just looked through my settings and yes Seraphas solution works correctly.

@HORSEpower

I don’t believe the scanner will ever work in Linux as it uses Windows to scan.

@Rocker

Glad to know the clean install is working. For me, the 8 to 9 upgrade broke it and now I can’t get it to work 100%

Also, for Windows 7, the driver requires me to cancel and turn off the printer between every print job. Do you have the same issues?

I’ve tried it on both Win 7 Pro and Enterprise. I’ve decided that once I run out of ink it’s time to buy a new AIO.
