I've been very happy with my Epson C60. Works on Mandrake 8.1, 8.2, 9.0
USB connection. No problems to setup straight from the control centre.

Biggest issue is cost of cartridges @ $50/colour and $50/B&W. Erugh.

Works out at around 20c/page. Still this problem is common to inkjets.
For B&W Lasers are much cheaper.
