Well, in theory you are right, and I totally agree with your point. In
practice, users normally want to use all the fancy extra features of a
printer, and not all of them can be expressed in a postscript file.

Printing under unix *is* simple, but vendors (like HP and Broadcom,
just to name two) have put a lot of effort into making it close to
impossible.
