CUPS (Common Unix Printing System) This makes it easy to add printers to your system and programs such as firefox will pick up the printer list automatically.

Installing CUPS
shell# pkg_add -r cups
or
shell# cd /usr/ports/print/cups shell# make install
CUPS to PDF
CUPS can also be used to print directly from any program to a PDF file.
shell# pkg_add -r cups-pdf
CUPS mimics lpr
If you have old programs which use lpr to print then you should install CUPS-lpr
shell# pkg_add -r cups-lpr
