http://www.openprinting.org/printer/Lexmark/Lexmark-x5470
does not look promising, see

what "Paperweight" means: "These printers don't work at all."

Did you ask the manufacturer of this piece of hardware
regarding a Linux driver for your exact model?

If yes, what was Lexmark's response?

If you did not yet ask those who made this piece of hardware
you should ask them regarding a Linux driver - at least to make
them aware that there are customers who bought their hardware
to use it with Linux.


Kind Regards
