You can try forcing the postscript level down from 3 to 2 or something. 
Maybe try printing from a pdf to a postscript file, and then printing 
the postscript file? Don't know. I'm guessing here. Have you emailed 
Lexmark tech support with a postscript file ( ie output from Acrobat ) 
that trips out the printer? I suppose they're not exactly going to fix 
*your* problem, but they might fix it in the next printer ...

As for alternatives - yes avoid Lexmark. They are one of the companies 
using the DMCA to prevent competition. They are suing manufacturers of 
compatible toner from distributing their products, claiming it's a DMCA 
violation! Of course, Lexmark toner is quite expensive.
