When we had grief with an HP OfficeJet 8100 printer throwing a wobbly with non OEM cartridges, we replaced it with a Canon TR8550 multi-function printer - we're using cartridges from Ink Factory and the printer is happy with them. That works fine with both my Linux Mint desktop (and laptop) and

I can second that - I use Brother HL-5270DN, which does PostScript emulation and duplex printing. Bought it through Amazon; the only small wrinkle is that it came from France, but they supplied a UK mains lead for it as well as the continental one. Ian -- Ian Park 17 Pyle Hill Newbury Berkshire
