Until recently I had a dell laptop running windows. I have a lexmark x3470 printer. Well my dell broke, so now I have a macbook running Mac OSX and I cant get the printer to work with it. My lexmark isnt actually supposed to be compatible with macs.. but I was wondering if there was any way to get around that problem. The printer is only about a month old and I'd rather not have to buy another new one. I'm aware there are threads about printing below this, they didnt help. Thanks!
 
Since it's so new, it might not be supported yet, but http://www.linuxprinting.org/macosx/ would be a good place to start.
