Re: [PLUG] Epson Multi-function Support

[brent saner via plug <plug@lists.phillylinux.org>]

Echoing Jeff here; we may be the odd men out but generally (especially lately) I've also had better luck with HP Laser MFP than Epson on Linux (obligatory "I use Arch, btw" here), as long as hplip is installed.

That's odd.. I've used HP almost exclusively (Ubuntu)
Weird problems now and then, but fixable. Earlier AIOs had crappy

I looked at an Epson that flat out wouldn't work (but that was only one
example).

ymmv

Good luck!
