Excellent printer from Hewlett-Packard. Drivers on disk are for Mac and Windows, but it is described as being usable on Linux via the web. However, in reality this means that it is fully supported on Linux.

After connecting the printer via USB I simply ran
Code:
sudo hp-setup
and had the printer connected and running within seconds. For other distros, you may need to go to HPLIP and download the drivers.

Scanning comes via XSane and the HP Toolbox. Everything works out of the box.
