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.

Our Samsung color laser AIO was getting flaky, especially for net access. I replaced it with an Epson EcoTank AIO and it's been absolutely hassle-free.
I was apprehensive at first, because using inkjet printers back in the 90s was just painful. But so far, never had clogging and hardly ever had a paper jam. I'd say the running costs are comparable or lower than laser.
Color laser printers always run out of yellow because they inline a yellow fingerprint. AFAIK this isn't the case with inkjets. So savings and additional privacy there.
Part of my job is working on printers and a word of warning, Eco tanks have a pretty common clogging issue if you're not printing regularly. Usually a few cleanings will take care of it or a power cleaning if they don't, but it's still something to be aware of.
