[plug] Printer advice

[Kev]

Some advice please, but not a war.

Do any of you have any words of wisdom wrt colour laser printers, below 
$1,000 and close enough to PnP with Linux?  I really like the look of 
the Samsung CLP-550N Network Colour Laser Printer with standard 
auto-duplexing.

There are other Smasung 500 series colour lasers below $1,000 too. 
Samsung claim to provide Linux drivers standard, but does anyone know if 
they're any good?  I've heard that HP always have good drivers available 
for them, but the printers seem to cost more and the specs seem to be a 
little depleated.

What I read on the net would suggest that Samsungs are reasonably cheap 
to run also.  Any tales of 1st hand experience would be appreciated.

Thanx
Kev
