python-dev isn't required to set up printing. That can be done using http://localhost:631 or with lpinfo plus lpadmin.
In general: Some additional info on setting up printers; http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Printing-HOWTO/ Esp; http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Printing-HOWTO/spoolers.html#cups-which-spooler Quote;CUPS can use vendor-supplied PPD files for Postscript printers directly. Often these come with the Windows drivers for a printer, or can be found on the printer vendor's website.
And; http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Printing-HOWTO/background.html#cups-overviewIf you are thinking of buying a new printer, get one with postscript support. It makes things a lot easier.
