I don't know as much about OS X as I do about Linux, but I do know that you 
likely already have the CUPS server (cupsd) running on your OS X box.  CUPS is 
what OS X uses for printing.

One thing you can do: In a browser, go to "localhost:631".  It will tell you you 
don't have access, but will give you a command to issue which will give you 
access.  Then you will see rare and wonderful things.
