We use the VM only for UPS Worldship software which requires printing to a Zebra LP 2844 (shipping labels).  Worked fine with Parallels 6 & Windows XP.

If I'm not mistaken, Mac has CUPS installed by default. Open your
browser and plug in http://localhost:631 in the address bar. If I'm
right that should get you started. Follow the cups manual to install a
driver for your printer.

Good luck.
