Dan. Yea, I had a 4200 that quit after about a year and a half.. My dad's malfunctioned also. I bought a HP 895 Cse that outperforms the Canons both speed and quality. I would buy an HP.. I'm using the HP 550c linux driver. Works nice. Alan -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Coming to you from RedHat 6.2Beta and/or BeOS 4.5 ===

Will my BJC-4100 drivers work as well ? How *well* does the BJC-6000 actually work (ie: fully compliant) ? I had looked at the http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/pht/printer_list.cgi printer list website and it says BJC-6000 is only *partially* supported. The BJC-5000 is paperweight and the BJC-4000/4100 are fully supported. So is it worth buying the BJC-6000/6100 ? Any other experiences out there ? Thanks... Dan.

Re: [expert] Printer recommendation
I use a HP Deskjet 812C with no problems. It cost me $100 and does a pretty good job printing color/black and white graphics and text.

Re: [expert] Printer recommendation
I'd also like to say that my BJC-6000 works fine with the 4000 driver. Dana Wayne wrote: > > Volker, > the BJC-2000 and 3000 work fine with Linux.

Re: [expert] Printer recommendation
Volker, the BJC-2000 and 3000 work fine with Linux. It provides driver for the 4000 and 600, which are the same engines used for the above two printers. I installed a 2000 with no problems and someone else here has installed a 3000 without any hassles. I cannot get mine to print ASCI though, which isn't a big thing for me, but is a consideration if you use ASCI for anything. Mine works like a charm printing graphics and text without a hitch. I could personally recommend the 2000 though for a little more money, I am told the 3000 is a good buy.

[expert] Printer recommendation
Hi, I would like to know if any of you can recommend me a printer (lower price category, quality and speed suitable for home-use) that works alright with Mandrake 7.0 ? I've had problems with my Epson Stylus Color 300 ever since I began to use Linux, and I don't want to make a similar mistake again and/or have to scan the net for the umpteenth hack of what might be a working driver ... Thank you for your assistance. cya, Volker
