Hello everyone,
a few days ago, I decided to have a look on the 70 most best -sellings todayās printers (that you can currently buy on internet in Europe).
I wanted to compare to the Gutenprint database in order to find one or maybe several correspondances (and it takes a bit of time 
).
And I finally found 3 :
- Canon PIXMA MG2550S
- Canon PIXMA MG2555S
- Epson XP-15000.
Those 2 Canon are entry-level color inkjet (60ā¬) + scanner.
The Epson is much more expensive (300ā¬).
There are a lot of printers with series drivers in Gutenprintā¦ I did not decide to try when the driver is for an entire serie because the last test I did last week, on another Canon, did not work.
So I focused on exact model driver for this purchase.
So I decided to buy one, in order to check if it works with Haikuā¦
I bought the Canon Pixma MG2550S
And Iām proud to tell you that the printer works very well !
Iām quite sure thant the MG2555S would also work. There is also a driver for this specific model in Gutenprint.
Unfortunately, even if the scanner is recognized by Sanity (it initializes), the app freezes before being able to select the scanner. If someone has an idea to test it with another app, Iāll do it.
So here are the specs :
Manufacturer: Canon
Model: PIXMA MG2550S
Connection: USB only (there is no RJ45, nor wifi)
Haiku hrev number : 56555
Notes: entry-level printerā¦ Very quick setup !
Go to Preferences, Printers, Add a printer, select Gutenprint type, USBā¦ and thatās all !
I shall add the same observation than for the Ricoh, you have to mannually select the range of pages you want to print in the job Setup, if you select āall pagesā it wonāt find any page to printā¦ strange bug.
Alsoā¦ take your time with PDFsā¦ the printer is slow to receive informations before printing (1 minute).
But it works very well.

Where is a laser printer?
A laser black and white printer is the best you could get if you print at home!
If you want to print colours you should decide to print it at a print shop!
A ink jet printer, if used seldom is a waste of money!
If you print less than 10 pages a month I recommend you to buy a laser B/W printer
Like a brother printer!
Even if you donot print for some months the laser printer will do itās job!
Even if it is much more expensive to buy you will be happy to save so much money you would otherwise spent on the ink cardridges which are expensive and dry out after some time!
Personnally, I only use black & white laser printers (the Ricoh, just above. And a Kyocera before) for this reason.
But most people use inkjet at home because itās easy to find, affordable, and because they can buy ink everywhere.
Laser printers are expensive to buy and have expensive toners (the toner for this ricoh is 160ā¬).
I used to order generic toners before and I unfortunately destroyed 2 laser printers because of those false toners. Thatās over for me, I only buy recommended ones now.
I donāt talk about colour laser printersā¦ itās crazy.
In my case, going to print shop would take more than 30minutes (and I live in a town), much more expensive and time-consumming than having an entry-lever inkjet !
If you have a print shop in your town, youāre lucky. Itās not my case, they are all closing little by little.
Please tell retired people than itās better to pay 500ā¬ for 10 pages/week with a laser printer than pay 80ā¬ with entry-level inkjetā¦ they will never buy the laser one.
i just print anime pictures every once in a while, cheaper than replacing dried cartridges

I had to buy a new laser cardridge for 50 Euros 5 years ago! Now I have still 2 cardriges from China bought just for stoch for 60 Euros!
I bought my Laserprinter 2003 for 300Euros and one! Cardridge for 50Euros! Since then!
If you like to print color posters or picturesā¦ Go to a print shop or an internet store for print your jobs to save a lot of money!

Iām glad for you. Is it working with Haiku ?
Witch model is your printer ?
most of the brother usb printers made in the last 20 yrs work with gutenprint
I use a Brother HL 1430
Very old now but still doing itās job!
I bought only one original cartridge and a Chinese cartridge not opened for stock. Cost 50.-Euro the original one and 50.-Euro the pendant (2 cartridges unused still now).
I use the printer for test prints only and for some letters.
It is a USB-Printer, and it works!
Edit: Buying a ink-jet printer is wasted money!
inkjets have their place

I use both an ancient USB (HP Colour Laser) and newer wifi-based (HP and Canon inkjet) printers. None of them work with Haiku. (Even through USB for the inkjets). Getting Haiku to work with modern ādriverlessā wifi printing would be awesome. Sorry for marring your lovely list with discussion 
You can list your printers as not supported here like the other one too
hello pulkomandy,
is this work done already?
Just asking! I do not need it!
Thanks
Bruno
P.S.: If i dislike my nickname here, would you please change it to some nicer name!
No, there was no progress on it since I posted this message.
