I did reply Jim but I included a couple of screenshots and it appears my reply is being held for the mods to approve. Not sure if you can include images in this forum? If it bounces I'll resend you the reply with a link. Short answer - HP is the only way to go for Linux printing and wireless is no problem, I've been using their printers for 5 years on Linux.

Cheers,

Rob

I intend to purchase a wireless printer for our home network. We use Ubuntu 12.04, Peppermint 3 and Windows 7. Was thinking about the HP Officejet Pro 8600 and wonder if anyone has some experience they can share.

Thanks,

I haven't used any wireless printers, but i recommend checking out the OpenPrinting database: http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/database/databaseintro

In general, HP seem to be pretty good with providing info to Linux developers, but there are some exceptions.
