I was surprised when I plugged the Samsung laser printer into the Linux
box It Just Worked. I have a fraught relationship with printers going back
decades. I seldom print and it used to be a very unpleasant experience to
get the damned things to work.

I installed Linux Mint on someones computer, and this printer just
appeared.  I didn't even configure it.  I thought why not, print a page,
and it printed.  The printer was on the network, and Linux found it and
configured it without me doing *anything*.
