I use a CLP-315 with Linux (My flavor of choice is Mint 7 (64)).  It 
works fine although i have had a few issues with it refusing to print 
web pages from Firefox ???   Everything else prints fine.  Cost of 
printing?   Hmmm   dunno.  Had it 9 months. Still on the original toner(s).

I can concur with Bret that it tends to print colour stuff (photos) 
quite dark.

BTW,  I paid around $160 for mine.  Was the last one in the shop 
(Cannington Hardly Normal) when i bought it.
