For BW laser printing, I have a Brother 2040 600 dpi printer. Toner costs about PHP 3000 with print per page at less than PHP 2.00. Brother has (semi?-)official Linux drivers:
http://solutions.brother.com/linux/en_us/ There are even fully opensource solutions (hlXX drivers). I use the hl1240 driver: gs -h | grep -w 'hl.*' escpage faxg3 faxg32d faxg4 fmlbp fmpr fs600 gdi hl1240 hl1250 hl7x0 I've even seen Brother color lasers, relatively affordable but not as cheap as the cheapest Fuji Xerox personal color lasers. 2008/8/12, eric pareja <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > i have had very good results with HP *and* Epson printers. no > experience with Canon printers. > > between HP and Epson, i'd choose Epson for lower cost consumables. > though, HP is coming out with low-cost ink models nowadays. > > On 8/12/08, Rommel Asibal wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) > Comment: http://getfiregpg.org > > iD8DBQFIonDkqYbDibguQtkRAqBLAJ4iMa6SZW/7tjKPQA1gD0BP7ARxqACeOUg7 > /oT1GhQl2vFPwF0o4xxbDzA= > =hNyX > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > > >> medyo late reply but just want to know if anyone has any luck with >> personal >> printers from hp / epson / canon working on ubuntu > > -- > eric pareja ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) > Coordinator for Technology, National Telehealth Center, University of > the Philippines Manila > "Ang mundo ay aklat, at iisang pahina lamang ang nababasa ng hindi > naglalakbay." > わかよたれぞ つねならむ > _________________________________________________ > Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List > http://lists.linux.org.ph/mailman/listinfo/plug > Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List http://lists.linux.org.ph/mailman/listinfo/plug Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
