Gentlemen,
My current printer, an Epson Photo R200, which I acquired with my very
lovely wife (dowry?), was pulled out of storage and put in to service
about a year ago. Apparently, this printer was delivered with the
ability to refuse print jobs when any of the color cartridges are empty
(e.g. I am out of light cyan and am not able to print in b&w.) It also
burns ink every time it is turned on to warm up the heads. With ink
costing what it does, relative to the value of this old printer, I am
considering an upgrade. Can anyone reccommend a printer that just works
with cups drivers? I am not against an all-in-one, in fact I would like
a scanner, but I do not want to buy something that does not have 100%
functionality with whatever flavor I am running at the time. Also, I
would like it to be network ready, so I can stop hosting it on one of my
machines at all times. Any recommendations are welcome.
Thanks
