Hp Printers and All-in-ones have a very good linux support. It is
amazing. last weekend working from a live cd. Trying the scan
application: Network Scanner on Hp "office ..." is detected
automatically and added to the system.
Unfortunately it is very difficult to find a printer which cand print
double sided.
