Will HP Officejet J4680 All-In-One printer work with Ubuntu 9.10?

Asked by Sandy

I have looked at so many sites which probably answered this question. I just don't understand what I am reading. I'm trying to find a printer that will work with Ubuntu 9.10. In the stores the boxes indicate only Windows or Mac. I believe I found info on the HP website saying the Officejet J4680 will work with Ubuntu. Can anyone tell me if this is correct? If not, can you tell me which All-In-One printer around $100 will work?

Thank you. That is the same site I looked at. I just wasn't sure if it was interpreting it correctly. I don't even know what the terms mean that are not supported. What is GUI?
