Question want-to-buy-a-new-printer-what-brand-works-best-with-ubuntu

Hi,

after some struggling I managed to get my old Canon Inkjet printer work quite well with Ubuntu. But now it more or less quit working (not even a new printer head solved the „stripes“ problem). When I installed it several months ago I often read that Canon is a brand that does not very well support Ubuntu (no drivers available). In fact Gutenprint helped in this case.

Are there brands that can be especially recommended for the use with Ubuntu?

I‘m not sure if I will by a color inkjet again or a color laser this time. Probably it should also have a scanner build in. It should be mid priced, not really cheap.

Maybe there is a list of printers available that are supported well?

And I think I can buy a new system the same time.
I pick up three model Asus Mini PC PN62,MSI CUBI 5 and DFI GHF51 which one is better?
