I think I have seen this brand here in the Northeast USA.
HP is one of the major brands for the "big" office printer, copier, fax, 
collating, stapling and multi-tray office machine.  There are others, 
but so far it seems that the driver for Ubuntu with "HP CUPS" has the 
most printer tray and paper/envelope sizes/styles of all of the other 
brands of printers I have tried on my system.

I really think the key will be which brand and model of "big office 
printer" has the best driver, with the most options, for Linux. That is 
in the subject line after all.  I have had [and have] some nice printers 
that currently have no proper Linux driver[s].  My HP 7000 wide format 
will print letter size [8.5 by 11 inches] but will not print the 11 by 
17 inch paper, for which I bought it.  I have to use my Win7 "boot" of 
my dual booting laptop to use that printer.
