I use three printers, all HP. There's a Deskjet 5650, an Officejet 6100, and a color Laserjet 1215. The Laserjet is most certainly the newest, because it is USB 2.0. It was a gift a couple of years ago, because it no longer met the needs of a nephew's workplace. Because it has both USB and parallel ports I believe the Deskjet is the oldest, but I'm not sure. Both of the inkjets use the same print engine, and the HP 56, 57, and/or 58 cartridges. I purchased both of them used, on eBay. All three work beautifully with Mageia Linux, as well as with a Windows XP guest in VirtualBox. TJ
