Technically not true. |

I had a Lexmark Z810 inkjet that refused to print from my linux |
| 9 |
desktop, and the problem is almost certainly the print driver. But the |
| 10 |
inkjet printed just fine over the network from a Windows machine if I |
| 11 |
setup a raw queue and installed the bundled driver on the Windows |
| 12 |
machine. |

I eventually decided to just connect the printer to the Windows |
| 15 |
machine because it seems a bit silly to run a cups server just so the |
| 16 |
single Windows machine (and only that machine) on the network can |
| 17 |
print to it. |
