if you mean computer software and driver stack, there's unix cups and various open source printer firmwares for linux.
The problem for me is scanners. I need a printer with a scanner, but scanning seems to require installing proprietary drivers :(
So I realized I probably need a printer that doesn't require a computer to use. It's ridiculous that it came to this, but there are printers that can print from USB and scan to a USB device. They seem to be rare though.
