Thanks for the information - CUPS look like an interesting project, but
only a couple of drivers seem to be available for free download, with many
others for sale - by EasySoftware or presumably/potentially other parties.
Downloading EasySoftware's package costs $49, or $99 for the CD, which
takes the $100 printer out of the "cheapest" category.

At any rate, I'm happy to know about it.
