Cups fan myself...

There are some additional packages, such as the foomatic (-bin, -db)
printer driver library and the hp-ppd package which contains almost
every HP printer.

And: you can very easily drop in ppd files for your printer
(postscript), if there is one from the vendor (sometimes you may have to
dig into the stuffit 'macintosh driver' archive.)
