Also if you are looking for cheap ink, epson and cannon seem to have the edge.

As the OP I've been researching this quite a bit and, as far as I can see printer drivers for Linux seem to be as follows:-
This page may help make comparisons, that is assuming that it is being kept up to date http://www.linuxprinting.org/vendors.html
That's useful but I'm not sure how up to date it is, it's certainly wrong for the Brother MFC range, the above page states that support is 'Useless' for the Brother MFC range but if you go to:- http://solutions.brother.com/Library/sol/printer/linux/lpr_drivers.html you'll see that quite a wide range of MFC printers have drivers for Linux from Brother themselves.
