Paul Smedley has updated (3/16/2009) builds of CUPS version 1.3.9, as well as Gutenprint 5.2.3, and Splix version 1.1.1. The latest build includes improved support for USB printers. Also available (6/28/2008) is a CUPS port driver, which allows interfacing the standard OS/2 printing subsystem with CUPS. CUPS is the Common Unix Printing System; the goal is to improve the printing support in eComStation. You can see what printers are potentially supported; those mentioned as working with CUPS or Gutenprint should work. There is a newsgroup dedicated to discussion and feedback, as well as a HowTo.
