I created JetDirect compatible server on my NSLU2 running Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04 using p910nd, which is a small printer daemon that does not spool to disk but passes the job directly to the printer. It is particularly useful for disk less Linux workstations and embedded devices that have a printer hanging off them.
