what kind of printer should I buy?

As long as it's easy for Grandma to plug-and-play her printer into a linux system, I'm all for it.

This is a good thing for the future of desktop Linux printer compatibility given that Linux will be able to easily use those protocols without the need for printer specific proprietary drivers. Modern printers will all be changing to these protocols so Linux may finally be rid of OEM printer driver nuisance.

Thanks! :) It's good to know!
A few days ago, I saw a post regarding a Canon printer that stopped working. This should solve the problem.

Best regards! :)
