We have a HP Color LaserJet 2605dn where I work (same printer as the
2600n except for the duplex unit) and it works fine (both color and b/w
documents... didn't try to print photo, but I didn't try that with Doze
either) under linux (tried it under multiple flavours, and on Ubuntu, I
used it with Dapper, Feisty and Gutsy). I have more problems with it
under Windoze than on Linux (Win2k printer driver just crash the spooler
on the computers... doh!).
