In the past, I have had the same problem with an Epson and  Canon. The use 
of 3rd party inks may cause problems. Each vendor, specifically Epson and 
HP formulate their inks to work properly with the hardware. I now have an 
HP all-in-one that works flawlessly, and we only buy HP branded inks, 
usually discounted somewhere.

In any case, make sure the printer that you get is highly supported by 
Linux.
