Gutenprint

As a software suite of printer drivers, Gutenprint (formerly known as Gimp-Print) is specifically designed to work with various UNIX print spooling systems including LPR, LPRng, CUPS, and others. With Gutenprint, users can expect high quality printing results for UNIX-based systems such as Macintosh OS X 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4 as well as Linux systems.

One of the remarkable features of Gutenprint is its ability to provide high-quality printing outputs that can often match or even exceed the quality and functionality of proprietary vendor-supplied drivers. This is especially useful for demanding printing tasks that require both flexibility and high-quality.

Additionally, Gutenprint includes a comprehensive package of printer drivers for various applications such as Ghostscript, CUPS, and even the Print plug-in for the GIMP. Together with Foomatic data, users can enjoy a wide range of printing options and capabilities.

To install these drivers, users can easily access the "Setting up printers" PDF which is readily available with the download package. All in all, Gutenprint is a reliable and exceptional software package for anyone looking to get the most out of their printing tasks, without the need for proprietary vendor-supplied drivers.
