I'm on the lookout for a reliable all-in-one mono laser printer

under Fedora. Must be networked, preferably wireless, and both print and

The Samsung Xpress M2070W looks like a good all-rounder but I'm unsure
about Linux support. Google seems to show a variety of opinions.
Anyone have one of these beasties, or have an alternative to recommend?

Mine is Brother MFC-7460DN. It has everything you listed, except it is
not wireless. Works for me as a charm for last couple of years under
different versions of Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, OpenSUSE. The unit itself
is very well build one. Yes, you need to use Brother's drivers for it.
But what's the problem with it, if they are always available and easy to
install?
You can easily find a unit with wireless, if it it important for you.
I've paid for mine on sale $149 and very happy with it.
Somebody asked, what you would do, if a power supply dies. Well for the
money I've paid, the answer would be a simple one:"I would through it
away and buy another one." However I do not think you should worry about
the case. I used Cannon and HP before. Brother surpasses them in quality
at any time.
