I'm looking for a black & white laser printer with a scanner for home office use. The only fancy thing about it is that I'm running Linux and I don't want to install any driver packages from the manufacturer. I want to plug it into any laptop running any Linux distro and start printing and scanning with no fuss.
Brother printers are very popular, but if I search for any Brother printer and "linux", all I can find is stuff about the drivers and how to fix the various issues that come with those.
If I understand correctly, modern printers should just work via something called IPP/AirPrint and they should also work over USB. Is that correct?
What about the scanner? Does that also just work over IPP?
