No doubt manufacturers will us this as an excuse to force users into buying a new model, blaming Microsoft in the process.

I use two printers with “Driverless CUPS” currently. One is 10+ years old HP, and the other is 20+ Xerox.

When done right, you don’t need new printers.

You just need to buy network-ready printers with native PostScript or PDF support. Then it has always worked.

But most "cheap" (if not accounting for consumables) inkjet crap isn't like that.
