Hi, I've Googled this a bit and found lots of noise about different experiences with devices that -didn't- work or commentary from people about how multifunction devices are a bad idea, but no actual recommendations. I was wondering if anyone could make a recommendation for me about which networked multifunction device is most compatible with FreeBSD? Specifically, I'd like a printer/scanner/fax/copier that: - is network-enable out of the box (wired is preferred but wireless is ok) - has FreeBSD CUPS printer drivers - can be configured to send scans to FreeBSD somehow (either by mounting a samba share, or sending an e-mail, or whatever) - had a scanner hopper that would let me scan multiple pages at once - bonus points for a scanner that scans both sides of the page It would be further awesome if inbound faxes could be routed to e-mail too, but that's not a requirement. Has anyone found such a beast? Tim Gustafson tjg@tgustafson.com http://tgustafson.com/
