Now this surprises me, printing has been the least painless thing I've 
ever encountered - it's the one area I'd say Linux excels. In OS X or 
Windows if I want to access my networked printer there's at least 5 
clicks involved - on Linux there was a grand total of 0 - it detected my 
printer and installed it with no intervention from me, I just clicked 
print and it worked.

Guess that's the problem with hardware though, it could have a few 
thousand good reviews and you could still manage to get something you 
run into endless issues with!
