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.

Had to get a new one recently too. I've had good experiences w/ Brother in the past too, but couldn't find one that quite fit the bill. Needed color and for it to be able to handle cardstock.
Ended up getting an Epson, one that's in the eco tank line. Has been great so far. Works just fine out of the box on Linux (LTS Ubuntu, anyway)
And I meant to say, most helpful resource for me was the website rtings. Most review and best of lists I can find by searching are so spammy, it's hard to get any signal. But at least that one let's me filter a table of printers by features. I just don't know how many they're missing.
