I've used lpd on Windows to print to HP printers with "HP JetDirect".
I read the recent thread about lpd/postscript.
Will I be able to use lpd to print to any "HP JetDirect" printer?
I'm looking at getting an HP 1518ni colour laser.
Does "HP postscript level 3 emulation" qualify as "postscript support"

If your printer is postscript, LPRng + apsfilter is a simple way to
install. It is also very lightweight.
If apsfilter has your printerdriver for non-postscript, it also works.
There are a few small details of dealing with lpr,lpd,lpq,lpc in a
different location.
Most people seem to prefer to use cups. But it has so many hassles built
in to it. I don't care for it
