http://gutenprint.sourceforge.net/ "What is Gutenprint? Gutenprint, formerly named Gimp-Print, is a suite of printer drivers that may be used with most common UNIX and Linux print spooling systems, including CUPS, lpr, LPRng, or others (like The Gimp). These drivers provide high quality printing for UNIX (including Macintosh OS X 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4) and Linux systems that in many cases equal or exceed proprietary vendor-supplied drivers in quality and functionality, and can be used for demanding printing tasks requiring flexibility and high quality. This software package includes an enhanced Print plugin for the GIMP that replaces the plugin packaged with the GIMP, and Ghostscript and CUPS drivers, as well as Foomatic data supporting the Ghostscript driver" Not something I've had a need for, but for anyone wrestling with an odd or vendor unsupported printer or for someone who want more from their printer, this might be useful. Print drivers apparently work for nearly 900 models (Canon, Epson, Lexmark, Sony, Olympus, and PCL printers ) karl
