Hi List,
I'd really appreciate some recommendations for colour laser printers for use with CentOS. It's for light home use with CentOS 5 and CentOS 6 systems.
Must have:
- Colour. Quality not that important as mainly for kids school project
type of stuff. 2. Ethernet connectivity - want something I can plug into the network 3. Cheap running costs - don't want to be spending a fortune on toner 4. Linux support
I have very little experience with printing on Linux. I'm assuming I want a laser with Postscript and/or PCL emulation, and Linux driver support (still not sure exactly what I should be looking for here).
Top of my very short list at present is:
Brother HL-4140CN at £167
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Brother-HL4140CN-Network-Colour-Printer/dp/B0047753F...
I'd appreciate any other recommendations people might have.
I have a Brother 4150cdn and can highly recommend it. Works perfect with Linux.
I used to buy exclusively HP printers but this is not true any more. The quality is not as good as it used to be.

Thanks Akemi. The shortlisted model above came from your original recommendation :-)
