It would shock me. Bonjour printing Just Works.
It's also the only way I know of to print from an iDevice.
The 2.5 year old HP B110a printer I have at home has never been physically
connected to a computer.
It has "virtual USB" drivers for Windows, but for everything else it's DNS-SD.
What I find most telling is that after 25 years, printers are still the
canonical
example of the "need" for SD. But printers have entire programs/wizards that
support their existence, so they're really lousy as a canonical example. It
would
be nice for things to attach themselves to my net and not require their awful
apps
to be installed.
