Today I bought a lexmark X8350 all-in-one printer Everything seemed to install properly, but if I was to try and print this page I would get :

"THIS PRINTER IS USED TO CONVERT FILES TO PDF

"IT CAN ONLY BE USED BY PRESTO PROGRAM MANAGER"

So what do I do to get this puppy printing ? Not very computer savy. I have Adobe Reader installed if that matters.
I sent Lexmark an email but no response as yet, any assistance would be greatly apreciated. Thanks in advance

PDF printers are "virtual" printers. They are used to convert a standard document to a PDF file, it does not print anything on paper from your printer.

You need to look to see if you have a different printer listed in your printer list, such as your Lexmark X8350. You may also need to change this printer to your "default" printer in case you have the PDF printer set to default.

If you need to convert a standard document to a PDF file, I use PrimoPDF which is free and does a good job. http://www.primopdf.com/
