my HP PSC 2210 works in its entirety, prints, scans, (sends)faxes and 
the cardreader works too. In fact it works better than it did under 
windows, which was not at all due to some undiagnosable error, probably 
linked to my VIA USB chipset. But it works under linux. Support HP, they 
support open source. Do check the individual model first though.
