The printcap for these is simple; actually getting them to print stuff is
the important part.  I suggest installing GhostScript and setting up input
filters for each printer to process PostScript into native printer format.

The apsfilter port would be helpful for sorting out the various file
types, and the Handbook's printing section 
(http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/) would help.
