There really does not seem to be a great deal of information about 
regarding the development of printer drivers.  Im wondering why this 
should be?  Is it really such a black art?

Ive also come across this on my travels (I realise it is a commercial 
product and not FOSS)
http://www.jungo.com/linux.html

So with this and the developers kit from Lexmark is there any possiblity 
of developing a printer driver?

Im also wondering would it be possible to use a windows box as a form of 
print server and somehow (?SAMBA) route jobs from the Linux box to the 
printer via the windows print manager?
