Yeah HP seems to be committed but if u have a user/customer who has say a Lexmark Z31 or something like that there isn't a driver specific for them. But then again I believe CUPs may support this printer..

Look at this http://www.hp.com/products1/linux/printers_and_linux.html HP says they're 'commited to linux as a strategic resource' and that they're spending money on linux development, and at the moment I see no direct reason to doubt them Regards Anders On Thursday 21 June 2001 22:23, Fred A.

Lexmark supplies Linux drivers for ALL of their laser printers and MOST others!! Check out below the statement from HP (in part) from their site!

"Linux is a UNIX (R) clone available free of charge on the Internet. There are also several distributors of the Linux operating system including Debian, Red Hat, Caldera, Slackware, and S.u.S.E. Linux is a true 32-bit operating system solution and is becoming a rival to MS-DOS (R), Microsoft (R) Windows, and OS/2 in the personal computer market. Hewlett-Packard is not supplying printer drivers for the Linux environment at this time, June of 2000."
