Welcome to LinuxQuesions.org. From reading your post, I'm not sure about what level of understanding you have about CUPS queues and *nix drivers. PostScript is a "device independent" page description language used by a lot of high-end printers, and was the native print job format prior to CUPS version 1.5 IIRC. A raw print queue would normally only be used to send print data from a CUPS client to a remote CUPS server, or for software that might talk directly with a specialised printer. So, completely different things. CUPS "device dependent" drivers are used to take a print job eg CUPS PDF file and process it via a filter chain into a format that the user's printer can understand (which may be a proprietary protocol).
