Well, not completely OT because I do need one that will work on Fedora.

  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> --

Will the scanner work with the XSANE app? I like that because it has
various definitions which can be set so as to save ink/toner for
low definition requirements, and then hi def for the occasions that
require it. Using an Epson all-in-one, but I may be looking for a replacement--
got hit by lightning a few days ago, and a lot of electronic stuff is
now junk! (Have not yet checked the Epson--the router got killed in the
blast!)

Ouch. Sounds like a major hit.  Sorry to hear that.

The HP M283cdw works with XSane very well. I create multi-page PDFs directly using the scanner and XSane. Also works with gscan2pdf and the GIMP direct scan (via sane)

My wife uses the  HP scanning app on her Windows box over wifi with no problem.
