I thought Linux had decent printer support compared to windows.
It does, in my experience. At least in Linux Mint.
At home, my old Brother laser is tucked off in a far corner of the house connected to wifi, and my wired home PC as well as my wifi work laptop both see it and can print to it just fine.
At work even those big printers show up and function.
Kubuntu LTS works pretty damn near out-of-the-box as well.
Mint is based on ubuntu so that makes sense to me!
Depends on the brand really. Some like HP and Epson haven't worked as good in my own experience compared to Brother.
Decent printers yes, some demons from ninth circle of hell somehow are more problematic on anything non-windows.
What a rude way to invoke cupsd
