The massive HP printer/scanner/copier we had in the office a few years
ago was a disaster.  The thing it did best was paper jams.  Dozens of
paper jams every day.

The canon that replaced it has almost never had a paper jam.

Of course those are not models you would use at home, but given they
do postscript and IPP network printing, they work great with linux
(for printing, scanning is a different story).
