----------------
1. Do not attach the printer via USB to the Linux machine.
2. For RPM-based systems: lexmark-inkjet-08-driver-1.0-1.i386.rpm
3. Manually adding the Printer in CUPS:
---------------------------------------
1. Attach the printer via USB to the Linux machine.

In the Device dropdown list, select "Lexmark USB Backend #1 (Lexmark
Z2300 Series)" or "Lexmark USB Backend #1 (Lexmark 2600 Series)".
Make sure you select the correct device. The printer is not detected by the
machine if you cannot see the "Lexmark USB Backend #1 (Lexmark Z2300 Series)"
or "Lexmark USB Backend #1 (Lexmark 2600 Series)". On some distro, you may have
to reboot the machine so it can be detected.
You can also Browse for the PPD file if the device is not on the list.
The ppd file is located in /usr/lexinkjet/lxk08/etc/lxZ2300.ppd (Lexmark
Z2300 Series) or /usr/lexinkjet/lxk08/etc/lx2600.ppd (Lexmark 2600 Series).
4. Select "Lexmark Z2300 Series" or "Lexmark 2600 Series" as model. After adding
the printer, you should see the "Printer Options". Click the "Set Printer Options"
(optional) or proceed to the next step.
5. You can access the printer admin directly by typing this address in
the browser:
http://localhost:631/printers/<name of printer>. The name of
the printer is what you entered in step 3.
