That's almost true if you're willing to spend time getting your Linux
setup configured, and somewhere there is a PPD for your particular
printer. What used to be http://linuxprinting.org has a list of printers.
One other comment, inkjets are only cheap when you buy them, if you
print a lot, you'll spend a lot more on consumables like ink cartridges
per page than you would with a cheap mono laser printer and buying the
necessary consumables as needed. It took me a while to figure it out
but it's true.
