Mark,

I disagree.

There should be no "transparent pass-thru device".

The way H-Hardcopy works is entirely on the Unix/Linux server and it
prints directly to the users default Unix printer or maybe the system
default Unix printer.

The only trickery that may be going on is that the printer is a SAMBA
printer that is directing the print job back to a Windows printer or
some sort of scripting to direct it back to a Windows printer and
those capabilities may not be available or from a security perspective
allowed in Win 10.
