Subject: Re: [Hampshire] Linux friendly printer
I just purchased a Samsung M2830DW You can run it either wired via
USD/Ethernet or via Wifi. Meets you 600 DPI requirements. A local
office supply shop had one on sale with free next day delivery for $50
USD and it works with Google Cloud Print, so it was a buy for me.

It was a pain to set up Wifi, but once I got it on the wired network,
it was relatively straight forward to configure via a web interface.
