Uh, what? How can you print to a deskjet and not a laserjet? How could the type of printer be relevant?

How are you printing to a deskjet anyway?

True,all OS's have a HAL(hardware abstraction layer),which alows OS to pass trough the driver a hardware instruction to the relevant hardware.As long as drivers for the printer are OK,HAL will make sure your request will be processed as it should be.

Please show us relevant code OP..
