Only one system should be setup with a local printer driver. If you
want to print from the Linux box to the OpenBSD box, either enable
printer sharing on the OpenBSD box (so the Linux box sees the printer
automagically) or use the "raw" driver on the Linux box so that the
job is passed to the OpenBSD system for conversion, e.g.:
lpadmin -p printername -m raw
Ultimately, this will look like a remote printer to any Linux app, and
they will grab the PPD file from the OpenBSD box automatically.
