Yes unless the Windows driver requires a hard direct connection to the printer. Lexmark is the actual manufacturer of your printer. (Sorry to be the one to tell you that.) However, if you setup up Windows to look at the port as if its a direct connection you may be able to cheat a bit. I had a HP inkjet that I could set up to share with Linux systems but Windows clients balked because they required that the USB connection was in place at the computer you were printing from. So while the Linux clients could all send print jobs to the CUPS server for that printer none of the Windows clients could. The Windows driver would balk immediately if the USB cable wasn't directly plugged in to the computer you wanted to print from. BTW because it is a Lexmark printer don't expect a Linux driver anytime soon.

In short it is not possible to print to Windows printer if native driver is not available for Linux.
