CUPS is the UNIX (i.e. both Linux AND Mac) print software. For some reason it’s maintained by Apple.

So chances are if a printer works on Mac (which it will), it’ll also work on Linux (which it does).

You only need to find the right “print driver” which is actually just a preset for CUPS. Scrolling the list can be quite annoying if you don’t know where to look, as it’s highly unlikely to find your exact model listed (which doesn’t mean others won’t work - they will. It’s just hit or miss sometimes if the autodetect doesn’t work).

That being said, if you’re shopping for a printer and have the ability to choose, try checking the manufacturer support website for “Linux drivers” (i.e. ppd files). Most should turn something up.
