# Choosing a Printer for Linux

You can use the Open Printing website to look up a printer's Linux compatibility.

You can also select a manufacturer, and the website will categorize printers from that manufacturer, into these categories:

- Perfectly

- Mostly

- Partially

- Paperweight

Looks like there is much more support for printers since Android phones took off.

HP has been one of the manufacturers that has supported Linux with drivers for years, long before others started offering support, so HP is generally a good bet. Regardless, always make sure to check that a printer is compatible with Linux before you buy the printer, even HP printers.
