Hrm, well, anyway...

Our "HP Color LaserJet CP1515n" supports postscript over TCP/IP in a few
ways, including lpd and as a simple tcp stream over port 999. lpd was
all we needed for OpenBSD and of course windows printing is no problem.
I cannot imagine printing from any unix os well be a problem eother. You
might want to look it up. Its likely not the cheapest but it is
definitely not the most expensive either. There may be newer models
available by now too.

I have no idea what the cartridges etc cost. We do not print enough for
me to case about that.

"Installing" on OpenBSD means trivial changes to /etc/printcap

Using a network connected printer with PS support really made me happy
after years of fighting with cheap crappy inkjets.
