I would highly recommend going with an all in one from HP, or better yet
an Officejet to also include an easy to use fax.  HP has been working
hard to provide an excellent Linux driver and software solution, and the
SUSE printer guru has been working hard to integrate all its features
into the Yast printer module.  The results are very good for the average
user, hard to go wrong.  One thing to check, since supplies are where
they make their money now, check the amount of ink in the cartridges. 
Size is not that important, but a cartridge that only has 5ml of ink
will not last long and will prove fairly expensive.  Also, HP replaces
the inkjets with the cartridge, meaning great looking printing for a
long time.  Epson only replaces the ink wells, meaning cheaper
replacements, but clogging (and lots of wasted ink in cleaning and
recleaning) of the inkjets.  But Epson is also well supported in Linux. 
As always, check first at http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting
