[cups] Inquiry about MacOS and Linux's CUPS

Recently we are porting some printer drivers from MacOS to Linux (probably Debian).
Does Apple add any improvements or other modifications based on the open-sourced version?
Whether there is any difference between MacOS's CUPS and the CUPS server in Debian?


If we simply recompile our printer drivers and let it run on Debian,  what is the probability that the Linux binary runs well? Is there any possibility that we should modify the PPD file or the printer-side filter source?


Thanks much for your help!
