I purchased a Xerox DocuPrint for work recently and it had srivers and full
instructions in the manual on how to configure it for Linux (using RedHat as
the example). I was so impressed I made a comment on the warranty card when
i sent it back.

BTW at $800 for a flat paper laser with 500 sheet feeder and network card it
was pretty well priced too.
