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!!

Have someone a Idea?
I have visit every Mac Developer Page but I found nothing!!

Not clear if you found the following page, referenced from the main developer documentation page.

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Printing/Printing.html

...and from that page I found...

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Printing/Conceptual/ About_MacOSX_Printing/abtprt_chap4/chapter_4_section_4.html

The above recommends that you contact Apple developer support directly before you get started. If you have installed the developer tools on your system look under /Developer/Examples/Printing/Printer/ or examples.

Also you can find documentation on CUPS at http://cups.org/.
