ok i fixed my rpinter problem on installing my dell 720 on this version of fedora 15 Lxde spin, lol.
this is how i did it.

first i went to this link.

http://www.packagekit.org/pk-download.html

then i noticed this with out the quotes , " yum install PackageKit gnome-packagekit " (as root) .
then i open up LXTerminal

then typed in this in terminal

su -

dont foget to add a space.

press enter.
it might assk for your root password, if it does, type it in, then press enter.

now its time to install the PackageKit gnome.

type in this in the same opened terminal .

yum install PackageKit gnome-packagekit

if it asks you yes or no, y/n

type in y then press enter

then when its all done installling from the terminal , close terminal , restart PC.

now the " add/remove software " is installed , so now you can use either yumex or add/remove to install or remove stuff.

-----
now to install your dell 720 printer. make sure printer is not plug into pc yet.

open up the add/remove program and type or paste this in search libstdc++-33 , you have to install this first. once that is installed .

click on these two links.

http://kjchome.homeip.net/z600cups-1.0-1.i386.rpm

http://kjchome.homeip.net/z600llpddk-2.0-1.i386.rpm

save the files to your favorite folder.

then close everything.

go to where youy saved the 2 files.

do the same to each file.
right click and then scroll down too software install and it will install.

then go too printer and add printer, select dell 720, then hit forward, it will search for drivers, then look for lexmark, hit forward , then scroll down to botton and select the Lexmark Z600 v1.0-1 driver

and it will ask you to do a test print, dont do it yet,
now double click on your printer to get too settings, click on printer options, choose draft for printer quality
then choose greyscale for out put mode, and dont touch nothing else.
click apply, click ok, now double click printer again to get to settings again, and now print a test page, now your dell 720 should work.



and thats how i installed my dell 720
