Sure. I've used Linux on the desktop since then. Even with printers it was still hit or miss. CUPS just acted as a catch-all, lowest-common-denominator of printing. I'm pretty familiar with CUPS, too. I helped build a school-wide printing system at my university based off CUPS as part of my job at the time. It had to interface with our internal authentication system, debit student printing credits, and interface with dozens of types of printers across campus.
