Then to shorten what Jan-Erik was saying, look through
the DCPS documentation for supported printers and get
one of those.

OK.

That will address everything you asked for
except the pdf printing (which I think Xpdf would address)

Presumably, instead of sending a PDF file directly to the printer (as I could with a PostScript file), Xpdf would first transform it into something else? How would that work? Presumably something better than a bitmap.


Direct printing of PDF files was mentioned here on c.o.v as a
possible DCPS addition in some later version (of DCPS).
