Looking to replace a dead inkjet with something network ready... since I'm starting with a new printer, I'd like to scrap my print server and save some electricity.

Requirements:

  • good linux support
  • wired ethernet built-in
  • not too pricely (looking to spend about $150)


I'm considering the HP6940, but wonder if someone out there can recommend a better option. I've had a few HP deskjets in the past, and they do what I expect, though "genuine" replacement ink cartridges are ridiculously priced.

HP has good Linux support.

And apparently, it works very well (from http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-DeskJet_6940):
