thanks,

I've had fantastic luck with Brother. They actually support Linux, which was a big part of what dragged me from HP after having been a fan of LaserJets for many years.

can you give model number?

The scanner part is tough. I'd love to see some good support for Epson. I've got a Perfection 4180 connected by USB and an 11x17 network scanner, but currently I do all my scanning through Windows.

FWIW, at my office we have a Brother all-in-one unit. I can't remember the model number, sorry, but it is one that was between 400 and 500 US dollars at Staples. (it's monochrome, BTW, not the color the OP wants.)

My Centos 5 box at my desk works fine with the printer and the scanner portions, using Brother's drivers. I haven't attempted to FAX from my computer using the MFC, but there are drivers for that on the Brother web site.

I would expect (but have no direct knowledge) similar good results with pretty much any of Brother's MFC units. YMMV.
