The source of the issue seems to be CUPS which is more than just Ubuntu.

Guess Ubuntu isn't the magic bullet people claim it to be? :P
That still sucks! Maybe other distros have that support still?

Today's gripe is that Ubuntu 18.04 / CUPS (and others I am quite
sure) [
has | have ] dropped support for a Generid Printer, Raw Queue. This
means that the dot matrix printer (remember them?) that I use to print
two part checks does not play nice in Ubuntu 18.04. Still does in
16.04.
I'm looking at a GitHub entry dated March 19, 2018 where said
removal is
discussed in the Apple/CUPS dominion. "Almost every printer
manufactured since 2010 supports IPP/2.0 with standard file formats.
Progress is not always kind.
