I would like do write a printer driver in Mac os x panther, but my

I have the printer description thermm transfer printer from avery.
It4s the 64bit system it very cool, but their are only windows driver.
I have check out, that I can write a txt file with the printer
language and go into the command in windows and write copy myFile.txt
LPT1.
And the printer is working fine!!
OK the printer got an Ethernet card with standart LPD access!! I would
write know a driver via Ethernet for Mac OS X!!
AFAIK, the MacOS-X uses CUPS for handling printing. I guess you need to
write a driver for CUPS and then it will work on Mac (and also on other
unixes which use cups for printing)...
That's all I know. You should probably search for CUPS and MacOSX and
see what comes up...
