Paul Smedley has updated both CUPS to v1.4.6 and Gutenprint to v5.2.7. http://os2ports.smedley.info/  

CUPS is an open source, multi-platform printer driver now developed with the support of Apple for many current printers.  For information regarding the OS/2 port and file downloads see: http://svn.netlabs.org/ecups/wiki/CupsPort  For more on CUPS see: http://www.cups.org/  

Gutenprint was formerly called Gimp-Print.  It is a CUPS backend for a number of printer models (Canon, Epson, Lexmark, Sony, Olympus, and PCL printers).  A list of supported printers can be found at http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/p_Supported_Printers.php

See http://svn.netlabs.org/ecups/wiki/CupsPort for download information on both CUPS v1.4.6 and Gutenprint v5.2.7.  


Please let Paul know if you find this software useful.  He needs user
feedback to continue work on these projects.  He maintains a bug tracker
for many projects at http://mantis.smedley.info  It just requires a simple
registration.
