here's what they say:

Best have posted a free driver for the HP10/20/50 that runs in OsX native
that might be CMYK data stream. I haven't checked it out yet, but will soon.
Best eSprint for HP Designjet 10PS/20PS/50PS is a printer driver for output
of documents using a HP Designjet 10PS/20PS/50PS together with Mac OS X.
For this, Best eSprint is using the internal technologies of Mac OS X.
Especially for color reproduction it is using ColorSync and for data
preparation it is using Quartz.
Best eSprint is integrated into the system as a printer driver. The printer
has to be set up through Print Center which is included in Mac OS X - after
that the user can print from any application.
