I had tried to install drivers once to run a dell 715w and it would not work at all so I am hopeing that there is a cheap out of the box option.
I don't have much experience with other brands, but Epson inkjet printers have all been pretty much plug and play for me with Ubuntu. Epson releases Linux drivers for their printers (at least for the ones I've used).
