Oklahoma Tax Commission (ie., my employer) has been building a
replacement tax system (ie., replacing an S390 mainframe IMS system).
So I have to support a lot of printers driven from Oracle Financials
(grrrr....).  

So far the only exotic feature I've had to support is font downloading
of MICR fonts for check printing.  Quick hack of the cups ps filter
and off it went (I won't let them print that to a PCL printer).
