Don't know much about pure Unix, I am moderately versed with Linux and Mac however. A common theme among my customers is they install the printers on LPD ports. I have had several Mac users swear this is the only way to install a printer other than usb. In the Linux/Mac world, I have always installed using the ip/jet direct socket on port 9100. Most of time it was like night and day for speed. Just my $.02 don't know if this applies for pure Unix.
