Buy new printer

Using XFCE.

Printers sold in Mexico are few and seem to have different model numbers than elsewhere. I have looked at Printer List | OpenPrinting - The Linux Foundation for Xerox and Kyocera but found none with a number that’s available here. I favour A Xerox 3020 but only a 3010 is listed. The other choice might be a Kyocera 1102Y82UX0 or MA2000. Does anyone have any experience with any of these? Please don’t suggest H-P. I have had problems with two so far. Or perhaps it’s because models that fail are sent to second second class markets.

I have had good luck with Brother Laser Printers.
I have an HL_L2395DW - refills are inexpensive and have good linux support.

I would not get an HP either. Consumables are so expensive and they want you to connect to them to use your printer.

I have a HP P1102w (wireless mode, but has ethernet) Laser for many years (2018), I think I’m on my 4th cartridge (about $70), never missed a beat aside from having to update the plugin. Never connected to HP for it’s use…

+1 to Brother multi-function devices. From the earlier topic I believe you are ordering the HL-1212?

Brother is good. Ink also last longer.

Hi. I recently bought a Brother HL-2350 and the driver is in rpm format https://www.brother.es/soporte/hl-l2350dw/descargas and it is running perfectly on Tumbleweed.

Brother all the way.

HP work but always quality problems or they stop working for DRM reason or whatever.

NEVER ink.

A Brother HL-1212 is on it’s way to me. Thanks to all for your encouragement.
