I'll assume that their other/newer products would work as well.
*assume*
Unfortunately this is an accurate description.
With CUPS, selecting the right printer has always been risky, too many
elements constantly changed, side by side with an outdated manufacturers
drivers.
An especially with the ever changing Fedora.
Fairest would be to leave the choice to the OP.
One I can recommend, the PostScript printer.
If these can help..

I totally agree with you Poma this changing of Library files that affect
printing and manf. like Samsung that make one driver for Linux and won't
update their drivers because they don't want to support Linux,because
they don't see Linux as viable on the Desktop, they just can't accept
the reality that Linux is bigger than they think, Linux has total
control over the Internet servers and many large companies.
The problem is there is no real way to gauge how many Linux
installations are out there.
I can say I will never buy another Samsung Printer even tho I agree they
make a very good printer.
If you meant *color* model at the first place, only those at the top
offers are worth mentioning, i.e. CLP-[567][5678][058] - the *true*
PostScript printers, not GDI or similar ones, whatever wire protocol are
used. But for your budget they are too much, and not only from that
manufacturer.
What comes to my mind, you can try with printing from an virtual machine
on which you current printer work, at least until a better solution can
be found.

Can Linux be run inside a Virtual OS inside Windows 7,
The two computers I'm having problems with have Window 7 installed on
them, BUT THE THOUGHT OF THAT JUST MAKES ME CRINGE.
