According to the openprinting database it should work perfectly; http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Lexmark-E120 One of the things that CUPS can do is transform different kinds of of files to something that the printer can digest. What I think you should do is create a "raw" printer that doesn't use any of those filters. Print to that printer from your windows box.

Lexmark E120 (with CUPS or apsfilter)
Hi All, Has Anyone successfully installed this printer on a FBSD machine? I tried it using CUPS, it works but some times it sends some garbage to printer (basically when printing from a Windows machine). Using apsfilter, no driver seems to work. When printing, even from FBSD host machine, the printer does not pull the paper. I'm looking for some successful story. - Marcelo ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
