I just bought a new printer for occasional home usage, to replace a 12 years old HP laserjet printer. This time I chose an inkjet because they are very inexpensive and because I can also quickly print photos with it.
The model I bought is an HP PhotoSmart 2570, an “all in one” product (printer + scanner) and I was very glad that both the printer and the scanner work perfectly thanks to HP’s commitment to the HPLIP drivers, which I want to thank for that.
As a side note, it’s too bad the installation and users manuals don’t even mention Linux…

Oh, and the supplied Windows scanning software is very strange, almost unusable. But that’s ok, because you can just install The GIMP for Windows. Scanning will work and it’ll be a lot more convenient than using the HP software suite.
