Re: HP vs. Brother Printers: Use with Centos/Fedora

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I've been running an HP MFP281 for a year or two now and it functions well. There are some downsides though to be aware of:

* HPLIP doesn't support all HP printers, and not as quickly as you might wish, so be prepared to find the nearest model for CUPS.

* HP have sharp practice over toner cartridges. To be clear, software updates will invalidate full third party cartridges which end up on the skip. The phrase "sod the customer" comes to mind.

On the plus side, quality is good. Colour is fine and the resolution of the scanner is good. The paper feed mechanisms both for printing and for scanning are fine.

HTH,
Martin

Centos 8, I should specify...

If you had to rate which printer brand works better with Linux (Fedora and Centos), what would it be?

TIA,
