From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I got my trusty HL-L2360D. It doesn't print color, but nor do I need to. I mainly use it as a network printer, thru its ethernet port. The USB printing works with no issue on Linux using the USB-IPP. It uses dry toner, so no issue of having to buy new cartridge after not printing a while.
I think I read somewhere they're trying to add some bullshit features on their newer products to "compete" with the other shitty printers. I hope I'm wrong on this.
