Nah.  Just a standard color printer.  No faxes or anything.  There's
even a fellow that specifically wrote a driver for it, so I know that
*someone* has gotten their Lexmark Z43 working properly.

Yup!  That's where I grabbed the PPD file from.

As I can print ASCII text fine and nothing Postscript, I'm guessing from
my research that it's now a question of making Ghostscritp see my
printer.  That's what I'm stuck on how to do -- back to the web!
