Technically not true. I had a Lexmark Z810 inkjet that refused to print from my linux desktop, and the problem is almost certainly the print driver. But the inkjet printed just fine over the network from a Windows machine if I setup a raw queue and installed the bundled driver on the Windows machine. I eventually decided to just connect the printer to the Windows machine because it seems a bit silly to run a cups server just so the single Windows machine (and only that machine) on the network can print to it.
