I to know which printers SUse 7.2, supports, i am thinking of buying a new Hp printer/scanner/copier....all in one deal

Does linux in general support those...i could not find the one i was looking for in Suse hardware database....

Do all printers work...or does just a few select work?

ANy put on good HP printer to get that does everything...or just a good printer and scanner as seperates....I want one that is under 200 and is "easy" to install...

Check out: http://www.linuxprinting.org/printer_list.cgi?make=HP

for listings & recommendations on HP
printers on Linux.
I have a 970Cse and have had no problems
configuring it. The colors are slightly
different from how it prints under windows
though.

hey man, well best of luck with it,
I had to dig through my files to find
the URL, but I'm happy to help... BTW
I've got a good buddy who was a student
there too, and is now at UNCA, hopes to
move to San Fran soon, to get into the
silicon valley scene.
I'm in my 40's
but been into computers all my life, just
a hobby. That printer page was a great
help to me, somebody passed it on to me when
I was new to Linux, and it helped a lot,
what comes around goes around, and I'm hope
you have success with your hardware setup,
good luck to you
