I've also seen MacOSX prin to both a FreeBSD print server running CUPS 
and a Linux (Red Hat 9) server running CUPS too... That was at my 
university. I think you would need to install some CUPS modules to OSX 
in order to successfully use it... I'll try to ask the IT who set that 
up at the university and see how did he got it running.
