Did you check out the Lexmark website for drivers?

I suggest you check the openprinting.org site to see if it is known to work

Unfortunately for me my Lexmark P4350 will never be in use as there is no drivers for Ubuntu or Linux!!! This answer i got from Lexmark cust. serice!
"Thank you for contacting Lexmark eSupport team. We do understand that you are trying to make the printer work on your Ubuntu operating system. The printer is not compatible with Linux or Ubuntu operating system. We do not have software drivers available."

In future I suggest you buy HP. The HPLIP package is in the default install and supports tonnes of HP printers and multifunctions. The HPLIP project is extremely active and you'll probably find their stuff works out of the box, unlike in Windows with several hundred megabytes of downloads for drivers

Can you help with this problem?
