Lexmark Z705 printer driver doesn't install

Went to this url to download Lexmark Z700/P700 linux printer drivers

The instruction are as follows Step 1 went OK but @ step 2 the lexmark-z700-cups-driver-1.1.1-1.src.rpm would NOT install with Yast - tried command line also = NFG.

I have the ‘lexmark-z700-cups-driver-1.1.1-1.tar.gz’

I don’t know how to write the make and make install command. Please show how. Thanks

Source installation (to build your own driver from the source).

  1. Download the z700llpddk-2.0-1.i386.rpm package: z700llpddk-2.0-1.i386.rpm, and install it with rpm -ivh z700llpddk-2.0-1.i386.rpm or using YaST or equivalent.
  2. Download the source package: lexmark-z700-cups-driver-1.1.1-1.src.rpm and install it (again as root): rpm -ivh lexmark-z700-cups-driver-1.1.1-1.src.rpm or using YaST or equivalent.
  3. The file ‘lexmark-z700-cups-driver-1.1.1-1.tar.gz’ is now located in your SOURCES directory.
  4. To build it, unpack the file and run ‘make’ and ‘make install’ in the directory that you unpacked it to.

Hey I’m getting somewhere - when a newbie like me don’t know what they’re doing the 11.3 give hints now?

If ‘make’ is not a typo you can use command-not-found to lookup the package that contains it, like this:
cnf make
linux-ckqf:/home/ptosis/Downloads/LEXXX # cnf make

The program ‘make’ can be found in following packages:

  • make path: /usr/bin/make, repository: zypp (openSUSE-11.3 11.3-1.82) ]
  • make path: /usr/bin/make, repository: zypp (repo-oss) ]

Try installing with:
zypper install make
linux-ckqf:/home/ptosis/Downloads/LEXXX # zypper install make
