In this case with Vista no driver discs were needed. Chap simply clicked and Vista loaded it - must've been in the software. Don't know if postscript capable.
But at least Vista has made some things easier. Time will tell if everything is easier or what percentage is easier.

If it is not postscript capable, I still have to select a driver manually - but CUPS will mostly suggest the right one. However, I don't have to insert any driver disks etc. unless it is some newfangled proprietary protocol or this "Windows printer" nonsense - the drivers come all by default. In any case, I buy my dedicated network printers postscript capable, so I never have any driver headaches at all.
