HP OfficeJet 4255 (with 4200 hplip recommended driver). I never tested the 
fax, but was able to scan some things. I also note that I was not able to OCR 
scanned text, but haven't given much of a thought about it (actually I got 
two OCR programs to analyse the image, but couln't find out the correct 
parameters for it so recognize more than one or two ocasional letters).
