I'm considering purchasing a HP deskjet or Epson Stylus Pro color inkjet. Before I purchase a new printer I was looking for a list of printers supported by FBSD. I'm fairly new to FBSD (2.1.5), so I'm attempting to make installation and use as simple as possible. Unfotunately, I do NOT have a bottomless pit for a checkbook (my budget is about $400.00 USD MAX!!!). Any suggetsions on which printer would work best for my situation? FYI: I'm a college student, so my primary use for my system is web surfing, development/learning C++ (and other languages) and printing reports when needed for school. My professores want my source code printed with actual 'runs' of my code (to verify it works). Any suggestions for printers or references to resources that can help me (besides a spelling class [ha, ha]) would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help. Burton Sampley
