[ale] Printer recommendations

[David Fitzhenry]

I've had good luck with the HP PSC 2175 all-in-one..  Got it at Best
Buy, but saw it for less at BJ's awhile back.  Photos look amazing, no
lines, scanning is fast and excellent, and the regular print quality
is perfect.

Works fine in Debian, and on OSX, so I assume any cups setup.... 
Scanning worked great through kooka.. . One thing to remember - You
have to uncomment a line in the hpijs (or hpoj) config in /etc/ to
make sure the printer comes up.   I believe the instructions are
linked through linuxprinting.org somewhere...
