Meir, You might want to check which cartidge do you get with the printer (make sure it's not some sort of "economic" cartridge which means it is less then half full), and you should also check how much a replacement cartidge costs.. You really don't want to buy a 350NIS laser

Sure you can. you can set things up with CUPS, or if you want the real easy way, use KDE printer configurations. Let KDE printer configuration scan your IP address range (or tell it directly what is the printer's IP address). Also, most of the times the port to "talk" to the print
