Okay, you've maybe convinced me. Actually, I was already
convinced before buying the Brother MFC-J6920DW, but the
problem (at that time, ~2016) I needed an 11x17" tabloid
with an 11x17" scanner. Indeed, the scanner's still what
I really need.  So, you got a color laser recommendation
that satisfies that requirement?  And, of course, a good
linux (slackware, in particular) driver. Thanks.
