I took John Rumm's advice and went for a Samsung in the end.

Specifically the CLX-4195FW. So far I'm very impressed.

Scanning - excellent quality with scan2email and scan2usb. xsane works
over the network too, but you have to do something weird to set it up the
first time.


The weak point on these sort of machines tends to be the auto doc
feeder. How's this one?

Granted it's new, but it seems pretty good.

The only software weakness is the fact that you cannot scan with "pseudo
duplex" - the ADF is simplex only and I doubt it has enough RAM (256MB) to
buffer one set of sides to allow a manual turn over.
