I noticed the following quote on the URL you referenced:
"For network printing the Barricade offers a built-in parallel printer
port. To configure the print server, simply plug the printer into the
Barricade, install the SMC Printer Port software drivers, and configure
your windows-based operating system."

But I take it that since this is a Linux list you successfully have Linux
clients printing to the print server? I assume that is the "Unix LPR"
support? And would this work with Mac OS X (perhaps via the gimp-print
package)?
