    Can anyone recommend a Linux wireless printer? I am really struggling to print other than swapping files to my windows desktop.

    Thanks

    HP works well with Linux in my experience. I have a PSC-2510, purchased 4 years ago and so probably no longer available, but a great example of an Ethernet/wireless network-aware printer.

    You should be able to share your existing printer that's plugged into your Windows system, and use it via Linux, if it's compatible. See http://www.cups.org/ppd.php for the list of printers supported by CUPS.

    Hi, I'm trying to download software for a PIXMA iP1900 printer (wired) but I cannot open it on the net book! I don't know if this printer is compatible with linux lite?

    Please could you help?
