What extension do Linux printer drives end in?

im not sure what you mean by extension. If you mean like exe, doc, they dont have one as it's not necessary in Linux to use one as it is in Windows. All device files will be found in the /dev folder when the printer is hooked up

The .ko extension is placed on kernel modules (loadable drivers) in Linux. Further, '.ko' extension is called 'kernel Object', and is implemented from kernel 2.6 onwards, this is perhaps the biggest change as far as loadable kernel modules are concerend. For example, the serial device driver that in Linux 2.4 lived in the file 'serial.o' in Linux 2.6 lives in the file 'serial.ko' .


What steps can you take to find a printer driver that isn't included with a Linux distribution?

An enlightened printer manufacturer my have a Linus/Unix printer driver available for the printer (Apple's OS is build on top of Unix!) so look on the manufacturers web site. [HP provides open source drivers for most of their printers as part of the HPLIP project. ] However in general the Open Source model does not approve of proprietary printer drivers and the Linux way is to provide generic printing capability using what is called the Common Unix Printing System (CUPS - see the related link below). This means that even though you can not find a specific printer driver for your printer you Linux system may still detect it and use it - try using the printing tools. ---- CUPS includes drivers for Dymo, Epson, HP, Intellibar, Okidata, and Zebra printers. ----- Photo-quality printer drivers are available for Canon, Epson, HP, and others from the Gutenprint open source project.
