Unfortunately the frustration level tends to be inversely proportional 
to the brain power of the printer.  Things are relatively easy if you 
have a printer which directly accepts PostScript.  Unfortunately, this 
is not the case with an HP OfficeJet 4110, hence all the extra bits and 
fiddling.

But you can actually print from FreeBSD.  I've seen it with my very own 
eyes.  :-)
