Hi Vitaly, Openprinting community (which I am a part of the community) plans to have printer applications for printer drivers shipped in Ubuntu implemented during Google Summer of Code [1] by multiple students. foo2zjs is in Ubuntu too, so there's a plan to implement a printer application for it.
However, if you don't want to rely/wait for GSoC results, one student from Google Season of Docs last year created a documentation for implementing printer applications [2][3], so you can learn more about how a printer application works and you're welcome to join our OpenPrinting community and help us implementing the foo2zjs printer application.
