I tried that, but after I ran the install script, nothing seemed to have
changed. I didn't have a PDD file or whatever, but that subject never
came up during the install. I couldn't find any adobe drivers installed
when I went looking for them.

So, in desperation, I downloaded the lexmark z53 drivers. This never seems
to work but I always forget how bad they are. XP warned me they are not
tested or  whatever, but I went ahead. After I installed then and set up
one printer, the printer wouldn't print (bad handle) and now I cannot
install any other drivers from the big list which comes with windows
by default. 

Oh well, at least I can still print in black and white. I will stop here,
since it is easy to see where this is all going.
