He's likely talking about the default Add Printer (Sys->Admin->Printing).

FWIW, I recently grabbed a new Brother laser (HL-2170W - wireless) and
it works out-of-the-box w/the Add Printer dialog (8.10 and 9.04).
Five steps less than in Vista and *quite* a few less than XP.

Now, I'm wondering if I should lock that printer down to keep any
neighbors from printing to it, but that's another topic ;)
