From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Brother laser is indeed the way to go for black and white printing. Else have a look at Epson.
p.s.
HP = evil
avoid HP if you can.I have a Brother color laser printer and it’s great. Just as reliable as my B&W Brother laser printer. I don’t use it to print photographs, though - I assume your recommendation is more for people who need photo quality color?
I have an Epson ET-3830, took a bit of digging to find the right drivers and get them working on Bazzite, but since then it's been great!
Did I read that right? What are you printing from your steam deck?
I'm running Bazzite on my desktop lol, but there's no reason why you couldn't print stuff from your Steam Deck!
This is the way. My Brother laserjet is 15 years old and still kicking!
The one time a year you need to print photos, go to a FedEx Office or CVS.
HP = Has Problems
😂
ill have a look at the epson offerings, since its mostly just color printing they need. For black and white they still have an inkjet 2000 hooked up to a XP machine in the basement. that thing will probably outlive me. thanks a bunch mate!
