I recommend the Epson 680. Epson have written a Linux driver for it which
fits into the current lpr/lprng/ghostscript system and gives the same
quality of print output as the Windows driver. The Epson package also
includes a GUI utility to change paper type and print quality.
>From the web page:
"It brings out the maximum performance of the printer hardware such as
1440*720dpi and six color ink by using the same image processing module as
the driver for Win/Mac and the microweave technology.
It offers the same print mode provided for the Win/Mac driver.
The print mode setting is supported.
We provide the open source as much as possible."
The driver is obtainable from:
