Lemark does not equal Linux
So apparently since I have switched my OS back to Linux, Lexmark does not support the drivers needed to print. It turns out that Lexmark assumes that if you run a Linux OS you are able to program 'your own' driver for the printer. So it seems that I might put together an old machine that I have and install Windows on it and print over a network. So for now I am without a printer.

Another option is to get a "cheap" "network printer server" like this one. But, I've got no idea what the compatibility matrix looks like for these servers.
I have an extra computer with a U-8668 Mobo, pentium 1.4 processor without any RAM. I was thinking about running a copy of XP on it and setting the printer up over the network.
I do ZERO gaming on my PC so Linux appeals to me more.
For now I am just going to use my old HP printer.
