I have a HP M277 which is a network or USB colour scanner, copier, and
printer. Once you install the Debian HP bits it found the printer with
very little setup (mine is on my network). I have not been able to
control the scanning via Linux (but I have a windows PC so I have not
tried that hard). The printing side is just works, I scan to a folder
but this folder is on my Nas so I have not tried scanning to a folder
on Linux. (done the scan to folder several times on windows PC as we
have a couple of these at work so provided the folder was accessible via
the network I can not see any issue). You should be able to pick up one
of these for around the £200 mark
