Well, not completely OT because I do need one that will work on Fedora.
I have found a number of ink jet all-in-ones that work well on Fedora,
from Epson, HP, and Brother. The problem is that I don't use the
printer all that much, and every single one of them eventually (after
I've had it for a few months) develops a head clog that is so bad that
not even the printer's cleaning cycle can fix it. I have tried some of
the cleaning kits with not much success (I'm a lousy handyman), and
even if I could get the cleaning kits to work, I'd rather find a
printer where I can avoid this headache.
So, is there any such thing as an all-in-one ink jet printer that does
not suffer from this problem if it is not used regularly? Question #2
is, are any of the all-in-one laser printers any good and work (all
functions) with Fedora Linux?
Thanks,

Gave up on inkjets due to clogging issues with low usage. Went with HP
M283cdw. Color, scanner, copier, fax, and prints from a USB
thumbdrive. There are cheaper models but this one was on sale. Toner
cartridges are expensive but my utilization is low so the cost will be
painful once every two years or so.
This model has WiFi connection as well as USB. Working currently with
Fedora 34, Mint 20 (Ulyssa) aka Ubuntu, and Windows 10
I also have an older HP LaserJet 1200 that will not die. Only got the
M283 because I needed the scanner and color.
