Download menu is blocked by a un-bypassaable cookie monster here. I had 
to accept, now I'll get tons of spam. The printer driver is only a 
megabyte. so I'm guessing windows actually has a driver it some how 
downloads and wraps so it runs on linux. That doesn't pass the smell 
test. Take it back, and get something that actually has linux drivers. 
Soloman Peachy was right. And he is one of the 3 people whose word I 
trust to render an opinion on printers for linux.
