Is there a way to easily identify the background fill-color or the font-color 
that is being used within a cell ? There should be, but I do not know how, as 
yet.

I am trying to change the background fill-color to match/be the same as the 
background fill-color that is being used within another existing cell. Same 
difficulty when trying to match the font-color.

Opening the background color/font-color palette shows me the many available 
choices, but I am hoping that there is a way to identify what is being used 
within a selected cell, by being shown its name. My guess is always incorrect, 
it seems.

As you suggest, if you use the controls in the Formatting toolbar you 
will not see any indication of the current font colour or background 
colour. But instead go to Format | Cells... or right-click | Format 
Cells... . On the Font Effects tab the font colour is identified by 
name and on the Background tab the background colour is highlighted 
with a border in the colour palette and named below it.


I trust this helps.

 Lexmark does claim to provide drivers for Mac OSX El Capitan.

Please see:

Hopefully you  can install whatever driver you need yourself.
