HI,

mine is an HP Deskjet F4180

Good to know, but I want a laser printer. HP 2727 does have linux
support but is getting terrible reviews. I think I'm going for a
Brother MFC-8370DN, it has drivers for both linux and osx.
I saw very good reviews for a Brother MFC-8680DN

Costco has them:

Have an 8480 networked. Haven't tested all the features on Linux.
Brother in the past has been good for me with Linux.
Brother told me they do not support Linux.
They do not provide the same UI apps to interact
with the printer for Linux as they do for Windows.
In fact I have not seen any apps from them for Linux.
That's why I always use the windows machine to do
scanning, saving, faxing and copying. I have a shared
folder on Windows, so whatever I save there is visible
to my Linux machine.
