I think that's where the parent was coming from. If you're used to using Macs (plug printer in, OS says, "a Brother L12B4, amirite? Cool, gimme a minute..."), and you go hook a new printer to a Windows box, the experience is going to make you go "'dafuq?" Why it has to be the way it is on Windows is a mystery to me. I'm sure there's a reason, and it's probably a completely understandable one ("decisions made in 1989, and backcompat"), but it drives me nuts when I have to deal with it.
