I'm kinda aware of the problem, but I don't know much about the solution. I like the goals and apparent viability of CUPS (formerly Common UNIX Printing System), pretty much a no-brainer on Mac and *nix, and apparently supported "well enough" on Windows (my Win 7 boxen have no trouble printing to and from my Mac and Linux ones). Comments, please. Add a new Reply Thread for each proposed solution path, please.
