What's more important? Colour
or Duplexer? It's more common to have duplexers on Laser printers.
But that is also shown in the price........

HP printers always seem to be
good Linux wise. They even have a HP Linux printer project.

Lexmark low end are really bad
for Linux.

[MLUG] advice on locally available duplex printer

Hi good folk,

I’m shopping for a printer, preferably double

intermittent use?

Linux compatible of course!!
