So far I am having smooth and functional experience with Kyocera multi-function devices. They connect easily to the main samba active directory domain controller and there is a decent Android app for wireless or network printing. PPD driver works in fedora but haven't tried with centOS yet. Scanning functionality works directly from the device interface or console so there is not much configuration needed through a client app. On Fri, Feb 22, 2019, 4:53 AM J Martin Rushton via CentOS <centos at centos.org wrote: > On 22/02/2019 09:21, Pete Biggs wrote: > > On Fri, 2019-02-22 at 07:12 +0100, Ralf Prengel wrote: > >> Hallo, > >> the laptop of my wife is the last Win7 system in my network. > >> My question: > >> I need a well supported printer (MFC) with network interface, if > possible with colour printing. > >> > > > > I know this is a bit controversial since they are a bit Marmite in > > nature, but I use HP devices.
