Depends on the quality of the print and scan.

For my needs, i e any non-critical needs (for the real jobs we have special equipment) I settled on an HP CM1312nfi MFP.

It works with OI, and it even says so in the marketing blurbs. (It says solaris, but that's almost as good.)

I had no problem, I used it in postscript mode only, until I could get my head around CUPS.

Scanning and fax are NOT supported in OI, as far as I can see!
I would like to be proven wrong: but xscanimage and xsane just crash.
It's not duplex, but I think there's a version for that at another 1-200 dollars.

This is at home, but we use it professionally.

For scanning we whip out a VBox XP, fax is used from the printer itself.

I was surprised at the number of companies and private citizens out there that are much easier to communicate with on fax...

Hello all,
Does anyone have positive experience of a currently available (not
legacy) Multifunction colour laser printer (duplex printing,copy, scan,
fax) running under recent OpenSolaris or OpenIndiana ?

I suppose you are not interested in the scan and fax functions?

Are there any that are supported?
