Drivers for Lexmark x5150

I am trying to download the drivers for a hand-me-down Lexmark x5150.
http://downloads.lexmark.com/static/229-1-0-133.html
When I download the:
Description: Driver for Mac OS 9.x.x and Mac OS X
OS: Mac OS X
Filename: X5100 Series Installer"
It comes over as a .txt file? Changed it to a .hqx, no go, .dmg, no go.
When I download the:
Description: Lexmark X5100 Series Driver for Mac OS X 10.1, Mac OS X 10.1.5, Mac OS X 10.2.3 - 10.2.8, and Mac OS X 10.3.x.
OS: Mac OS X 10.2.5
Filename: CJMX5100L1.hqx,
it seems to install fine. In Printer Setup Utility, Add printer, the Lexmark x5150 shows up under USB printer, but I have to select a driver/model to install it with. There is no x5150, or any x5100 series to select. It is almost like it did not install any drivers.
I contact Lexmark Support through the web chat (mistake). Here is the text...
If anyone can help, or point me to where I am making a mistake, please do so.
Thank you,
Spinner
Someone will be with you shortly...
[Kevin] When I download the drivers for Mac 10.4 for Lexmark x5150, it scomes over as a text file (.txt). How do I install the drivers on Mac 10.4.10, for the X5150.
[Jordon] Welcome to Lexmark Chat Support.
[Jordon] I will help you with this issue.
[Jordon] Are you trying to install it from the installation disc ?
[Kevin] no, from drivers I am downloading from
[Kevin] http://downloads.lexmark.com/static/229-1-0-133.html
[Jordon] Have you saved the filr on the desktop.
[Kevin] yes, but when it is downloaded, my computer recognizes it as a text file, not an installation file. It will not install.
[Jordon] Let me know the file name, you have downloaded?
[Kevin] Description: Driver for Mac OS 9.x.x and Mac OS X,
"X5100 Series Installer.txt"
[Jordon] Click CJMX5100L1.hqx, save the file on the desktop.

[Kevin] ok
[Kevin] it is almost done
[Kevin] installing...
[Kevin] Ok now a box popped up, x5150 series printer selection.
[Jordon] Follow the prompt to install.
[Kevin] ok, When I select Add Printer, the printer that is plugged in shows up, but when I try to selct a driver under the "Print Using" area, there is no x5150, or even close. Which one do I use?
[Jordon] Check it once again.
[Kevin] it will not add the printer, until I select a model/driver. The correct model or driver is not showing up. The only one close is an X422, and X422 fax

[Jordon] I suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the MAC OS.
[Kevin] This is a brand new computer???

Trying to install drivers for Lexmark X4650

I've downloaded the RPM based drivers for this printer from Lexmark and am now trying to get it working with CUPS.
I created a PKGBUILD based on one of the other LEXmark driver examples. makepkg completes successfully and gives me a package but, after installing, this package doesn't seem to make any difference to CUPS... In particular I'm hoping to see it listed in the printers available when setting up a printer.
My PKGBUILD is as follows:
# Contributor: Paul Hunnisett <[email protected]>
pkgname=lexmark-08z
pkgver=1
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Lexmark 08z Printer Driver"
makedepends=('rpmunpack' 'cpio' 'gzip' 'bash')
depends=('libstdc++5' 'libcups')
url="http://www.lexmark.com/"
arch=('i686')
source=(http://www.monkeypower.co.uk/lexmark-08z-series-driver-1.0-1.i386.rpm)
md5sums=('1fc4ff46b306efb29d1806bfbbcbf85c')
build() {
cd $startdir/src
rpmunpack lexmark-08z-series-driver-1.0-1.i386.rpm
cd $startdir/pkg
mkdir -p ./usr/lib/cups/backend/

rm -rf ./usr/include
rm -rf ./usr/local/08zero
find . -name '*.la' -exec rm {} \;
Any ideas what I'm missing/getting wrong?

I have a Lexmark X1185, but I do not have the driver CD that came along with it. I have a 15" MacBook Pro (Late 2011) and I cannot seem to find drivers for OSX Lion.. Where can I find the drivers?

After updating my drivers for my lexmark printer now I cannot scan

After being notified that I needed to update my printer drivers for my Lexmark 2500 printer, Which I did, now I can't scan,

Were you able to scan before the notification? Do you have Time Machine enabled or a backup of your hard drive made before you applied the new drivers? If yes to both you may be able to restore the older drivers and scan again.

Can I Print Through Airport Express With A Lexmark x5150?

Am I able to print through A.E. with my Lexmark X5150 All-in-one? I'm having issues. It's recognized by my laptop, but won't print through A.E. It does, however, print when the USB is plugged into my lBook directly. I think I have the latest drivers installed. Can anyone offer up any suggestions/help? Thanks in advance......

The Lexmark X5150 is not on the list of supported printers found at http://www.efelix.co.uk/tech/1013.html . Based on your findings, I suspect this printer just won't work with anything but a direct connection to your Mac's USB port.
Not many all-in-one printers are supported for connection via an Airport Express. For those few models that do work, only printing is possible - other functions like scanning won't work. For some all-in-ones, an alternative driver can be found that will at least support printing - but I cannot find any alternative driver that will work with the x5150.

Just bought pro with new os installed - will not let me run install disk for lexmark printer

just bought pro with new os installed - will not let me run install disk for lexmark printer?

Is that disc for Mac systems or Windows ?
I suggest you visit Lexmark web site and download and install drivers for your exact printer manually.

Have an ibookg4 with mac osx version 10.4.11 trying to install printer software for lexmark z22 softwaredisk is for mac8.6/9

i have an iBookG4 with mac OSX10.4.11 i am trying to install software for my lexmark z22 printer disk is for mac 8.6/9 can i do this install. i just got this mac use to having a pc. thank you for any help

Hi, michele -
That disk is of no use - it has drivers for OS 9 and earlier, which are useless in OSX.
OSX 10.4 already includes drivers for that printer model. See this Apple KBase article -
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1468
Scroll down to the Lexmark entry, click the link to show included drivers. In the matrix on the new page it lists the Z22 model.

Software Update for Lexmark Printers

When running software update it shows an update for Lexmark printers. If this software is used the printer does not function. Lexmark recommends manually downloading their latest drivers from their web site. I did and the printer now functions, but software update still shows that a download is required.
I looked at the software update information on Apple's web page and it shows a method to disregard update recommendations, but my software update does not have the capabilities they show.
I would love to get rid of the Lexmark update message.
All other updates have worked including the newest one for Snow Leopard.

I would love to get rid of the Lexmark update message.

Need Driver for Lexmark X6170

So i searched and couldn't find the drivers for this specific printer, I downloaded the Lexmark Printer Driver update 1.1 with no luck, closest I could find was the X6200 series, which didn't work.
I'm sure you guys get this all the time, but if anyone knows if there is a driver available for the Lexmark X6100 series printer, I would be thankful.

Hello Rosario:
I took a look at the Lexmark web site and noted that OS X is NOT one of the supported platforms for the Lexmark 6170. You could try a generic driver (Gutenberg?) from OS X and see if it will make the printer run.

Why aren't there Windows 7 (64 bit) specific drivers for my HP color LaserJet 3600n printer?

Why doesn't HP support its own printers by providing drivers for a very stable operating system? I've been a longtime HP laser customer...since 1984 laser I. I would like to use drivers for my color LJet 3600n which were specifically written for my computer's operating system.
Does anyone know where there are Windows 7 (64 bit) drivers for the HP color LaserJet 3600n printer? Do I have to purchase Brother or Canon or Lexmark printers to get support?

Oh, you must not be on the English US site. Basically it says to use the Vista driver and gives a link to it. That is as good as it gets at this point, sorry.
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

Use lexmark x5150 software to install dell a940

has anyone had any luck getting a dell a940 (which is a lexmark x5150) to work on a mac? I know that lexmark published mac drivers (dell does not) but of course the lexmark software does not see the dell to install it.

You should probably contact Dell and ask if they support Mac in their a940 printer.

Can't find drivers for ipod nano 8GB for windows vista HELP

I am trying to find the drivers for my ipod nano 8GB. I am running Windows Vista on my laptop. I have tried absolutely everything listed on this webpage and others. I have removed itunes and reinstalled it and still nothing. I downloaded usbstor.sys and usbstor.inf. I have gone into my computer and clicked on the ! next to my ipod in file manager and have gotten nowhere! This has been 5 days of frustration. I don't understand why apple would not just SUPPLY the software for the nano. I am beyond frustrated now. Can someone please help...

Something is going on with your Nano if Vista doesn't see it anymore. Did you use device manager and try to uninstall your Nano? Perhaps this will work. Once uninstalled, the next time you plug it in, Vista will see the Nano as a new device and install the proper USB drivers.
I'm not on my Vista computer right now...but here's an article to help you find device manager in Vista: http://kb.wisc.edu/page.php?id=5183
Good luck!

HP LaserJet P2035n Drivers for 64bit XP

So I tried to use the HP email and live chat support but neither worked because they said my p/n or s/n were invalid and I am pulling them off the printer itself. The issue I am having is with a HP LaserJet P2035N. It is hooked to the network and the driver for xp work the PLC5 ones. I have one computer that is running XP 64 bit and when I go to download the drivers for it there are no network driver for the printer only local drivers. I called the 1800 number and they gave me a website to go to that just redirected back to where I was. Any advice?

The model number HP LaserJet P2035N.
Method 1:
You may refer to the below links and use the troubleshooters. Check if it lists and helps resolve any issues: Open the Printer troubleshooter:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=3662026&...
Method 2:
You may check if you have the latest drivers installed for the device. You may refer to the below link for getting the latest drivers and check.

Anybody found Vista x64 drivers for nVidia GeForce 8600M GT (Macbook Pro)?

These guys at Apple are launching 64-bit Leopard and I still cannot find 64-bit graphics drivers for my laptop under Vista. It makes me sick. Their Boot Camp 1.4 vesion contains only 32-bit drivers.
It's the laptop manufacturer (Apple company) who are responsible for providing me with drivers, not the graphics card manufacturer (nVidia).
I have been waiting for 5 months already and will wait for another 1-2 months and if the drivers don't appear I'm going to sell the laptop because I simply cannot watch DVDs, I cannot play games without properly installed grahics card.
If you have the drivers, please let me know.
Best regards.

first of all, I think apple will never really "support" windows 64bit...
anyway
try -> http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/
my vista 32bit works with the drivers from this page.
but u need to read the "Quickstart Guide" before you try installing the drivers
cheers
