| From: Tim Tisdall <tisdall@gmail.com> | I've also used the Brother DCP-7065DN (which has a wired ethernet | interface) and that works well with Linux. It doesn't do colour, but it | has a page scanner with a sheet feeder. I was able to use the SimpleScan | program in linux over a network to scan (even with the sheet feeder!). | Brother provides linux driver binaries. Staples seems to have it now for | $179. I have one of these. I think that I paid about $100 many years ago. It's a reasonable printer but I'll list the things I don't like. - it requires binary drivers. This is a bit scary -- what happens when Brother stops support. But, as I said, I've had it for years and Brother has maintained support. - a network printer with binary drivers is even worse. Each machine that will use the printer directly needs the proprietary drivers installed. - the toner cartridges have small capacity so you need to buy new ones frequently. (Third party ones are available.) I'd pay more for a printer that didn't require binary drivers. A nice touch: although the flatbed scanner cannot handle legal size documents, the sheet-fed scanner can.
