I have just done an experiment.
My eeePC is now running Xubuntu and I plugged my MFD in and it all worked. I can't comment on the Xandros version that comes with it, although it does share XUbuntus Debian roots.
I guess it depends on if your printer is supported.If we hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate! (Zapp Brannigan)
My new blog. It's probably not as good as I think it is.
