The nice thing about USB printers is that they all have the same low-level interface, usblp. Now all you need to do is find one that supports PostScript (preferably) or PCL, and *doesn't* have "host-based printing" (marketroid speak for "our printer is as dumb as a rock, so our proprietary driver does the hard work instead". See http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?objectID=bpl07860 for HP's own take on it). -- Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams <ivazqueznet@xxxxxxxxx>
