Now I disagree with that. Network printing works far more
reliably with Linux than Windows. The only issue that I have
come up against is when printing photos to an inkjet. The
HPLIP driver is much slower than Windows driver. No problem
with the quality of the output. Now with respect to drivers I
found more problems with Windows than Linux. Upgrading
Windows lost support for some old workhorses which still
work just fine in latest versions of Ubuntu. I am only able
to keep a old very dependable LaserJet 2100 going by hosting
on a Ubuntu server. Now you will have trouble with a new
crappy $45 Lexmark disposable WinPrinter...

I have used CUPS on Linux to print and scan from monster-sized
all-in-one networked printers from HP, Xerox, and Kyocera.

This "Slimer" troll is full of ****.


Just refrain from insulting the cretins who are full of **** They
don't deserve to be compared to that POS


ok we won't insult the linux disciples whenever possible.
