I wish there was a site like this that would give better Linux [Ubuntu 
10.04+] drivers for Epson Artisan 810 printers so the scanner would work 
[with XSane].

It is nice to see some of the other printer companies, other than HP, 
have sites where you can get drivers.

I have to keep a Windows system to handle USB hardware that I cannot 
find Linux drivers for [printer and other hardware]

Funny to see a Dell printer listed, but it seems that Dell "repackages" 
other company's printers and charges big bucks for their ink.  $80 for 
Dell ink for a Lexmark repackaged printer that you can get ink for about 
$20.
