Dear all,
My old Brother MFC- 9330 CDW is nearing its end of lifeĀ and I'll have
to replace it.
Not all printers are correctly supported by openindiana. Which
(unexpensive: it is for home use) color laser printer/scanner/copierĀ
for openindiana would you recommend ?
Thanks and best regards
Marc

Hi!
I would generally say that any modern printer is capable of Postscript,
so any should do the job, if you setup your driver (with cups?) to use
postscript.
I have a HP MFP 281fdw.
This i have in CUPS:
Description: HPLIP
Location:
Driver: HP ColorLaserJet MFP M278-M281 Postscript (recommended) (color,
2-sided printing)
(.. but you could use a postcript drive for an apple color laserwriter,
too. Maybe you can't use some features, but you will be able to print..)
For scanning i currently use "simplescan" on a linux vm..
We have xsane package on OI, but it seems currently broken because of
the gimp update to version 3:
$ xsane
ld.so.1: xsane: fatal: libgimp-2.0.so.0: open failed: No such file or
directory
ld.so.1: xsane: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/bin/xsane: symbol
gimp_main: referenced symbol not found
Regards,
Stephan
