I can't seem to find the exact binary on my system, but I'm using the standard
Apple CUPS that comes with Leopard. According to http://localhost:631, it is
CUPS 1.3.8.

CUPS is the standard printing system in OS X. Apple actually bought CUPS in
2007. If Wine supports CUPS, it shouldn't be hard to make whatever tweaks are
necessary to get Wine and Mac OS X CUPS to play nicely. As I said, Darwine did
it.
