Hi Shelagh,

First, let me get this out of my system: printers suck.

Second, have you taken a look at Ubuntu's Hardware Support pages?
This one looks specifically at printers:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters

>From there it'd just be a matter of finding printers that fit in your price
range/required feature set and comparing them to that list.

Cheers,
David
