Hi Vitaly,

Openprinting community (which I am a part of the community) plans to
have printer applications for printer drivers shipped in Ubuntu
implemented during Google Summer of Code [1] by multiple students.
foo2zjs is in Ubuntu too, so there's a plan to implement a printer
application for it.

However, if you don't want to rely/wait for GSoC results, one student
from Google Season of Docs last year created a documentation for
implementing printer applications [2][3], so you can learn more about
how a printer application works and you're welcome to join our
OpenPrinting community and help us implementing the foo2zjs printer
application.
