[TriLUG] Good budget priced inkjet for Linux?

[al johnson]

You might want to try an Epson printer. I have an Epson 740 which works 
pretty good with Linux, as well as my Mac OSX machine---but that is a much 
older model, which would be difficult to find, although I can easily find 
cartridges for it both from Epson and from several other companies. I'm not 
sure about the later models, but if they work as good they should satisfy 
your needs. Epson is one of the oldest computer printer companies and they 
really know what they're doing (as opposed to the relative newcomers). Wish 
you luck.---Al Johnson.
