   Canon's lack of Linux support is legendary. I ditched an otherwise nice   
   BJC5100 printer for that reason. I've had very good experiences with Epson   
   products - particularly from the Epson online store where they have very   
   good prices for refurbished products supported under 'iscan' software -   
   downloadable from avasys.jp.
