Paul Smedley has ported CUPS version 1.4.5 (dated 11/21/2010, but posted on 2/2/2011), as well as Gutenprint 5.2.6 (11/21/2010), HP-LIP version 3.10.2 (5/3/2010), Splix version 1.1.1 (12/26/2008), Foomatic version 4.05 (9/26/2010), and foo2qpdl (6/28/2010). Also available (4/10/2009) 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.
