Perhaps I should add that I do not have a printer, this is to
help me

decide which machine to buy.

I would say HP, except I'm still jerked with them. Maybe if you
got one from them that COST A LOT you would have better luck than
I did with my "Entry Level" printer, ...per the HP rep lady in
charge of Technical Services wrote when I complained that it
refused to print legibly after 13-14 months of usage. <swears

Why not get a Brother Printer? I've had one for quite a while now,
printing and scanning works flawlessness with Ubuntu. Pretty much
all their printers are supported, you just have to go to their
dedicated Linux site to download the drivers:<br>
