One feature of this printer is that if a job arrives at it improperly formatted, the job just gets lost. I guess the printer just ignores it.
So, are you sure you have the lexmark driver installed properly? At this point, I would go to the stepbystep (search filters hammer) and get my article about print filters. At the end I dissect the filter that comes with lexmark drivers. Note you need gs installed. I have version 6.01. You also need enscript. You also need the driver program z53 working. You can check to see if the filter got called by looking at the tmp file created when the driver is activated. (This tmp file is needed to print pdf files.) You can put debugging commands into the filter, eg: echo Got here > /home/youruser/message in appropriate places. Relax, you're gonna solve this thing, you'll really like this printer, and you will learn some useful stuff about print filters in the bargain.
