I am using an HP Photosmart 3210a on my network.  Using HP Toolbox, I 
have no problem printing any sort of file, including postscript and 
photos from Kubuntu.  If you have any problem, you could also install 
the Adobe stand alone printer interface (http://tinyurl.com/e1r) and 
specify the HP driver instead of the generic one that the installer 
chooses.  That should deliver your file directly to CUPS and guarantee 
you a postscript capability.  I have a German contact on the Corel Linux 
list who says he is having great success using the Adobe drivers to 
print postscript files from a Debian variant and VirtualBox W2K (using 
WordPerfect Office [WIN]) to a Samsung printer.
