supported by Linux. The same for a scanner.

As a rule of thumb all HP products are supported in Linux (more
accurately: They provide Linux support for their products).

My HP scanner and HP inkjet printer work out of the box.


Give you $10 if you can help me get my old HP ScanJet 3200C (parallel
port connector) working on Gutsy & Hardy :-)

I use a different scanner (Canon MP750) but want to get this working so
I can install it at a different location.

New thread to respond of course :-)
