Foomatic supports both

Here's the link for PS level one printers:

Alas I found this after I gave up on my LWPlus.

This page has a wealth of printing info:

Re: Apple Printer drivers

2005-11-14 Thread Tim Collier
You'd have a lot better luck if you installed the CUPS printing  
system, lots of drivers available.  And if it's not there, you can  
get it from one of the linux sites.  Practically every printer ever  
made is listed.  To check to see if it's already installed, open your  
web browser and type localhost:631 and you should get a locally  
served website devoted to your printers.  If it's not, you can add it  
from your OS X install disk.
