A little more info would be useful. Do you do a lot of printing or only occasionally? Do you need colour or is monochrome (black) ok? Scanning built in? Ethernet or wireless network connectivity? Or USB? Other features? Otherwise you may get suggestions that don’t meet your needs. :wink:

In general, HP printers are well supported by HPLIP, Brother have Linux (CUPS) drivers for many models are well. Epson and Canon can also be considered for some models.

Models supported by Gutenprint (free) printer drivers included with CUPS

For scanning (if applicable), support may be provided by the vendor and/or by open source (SANE) drivers eg

If you’re not sure about a particular model, post the details here and I’m sure someone can advise further.
