installing print drivers

While this is not an answer to your problem, it might be. I visited that 
site and others and chose a well supported printer and then sourced it 
(damn hard to do in South Africa, I'll tell you) and - luckily - bought 
it. It's an Epson Stylus CX3200 and it works like a bomb (scanning and 
printing) with the Gutenprint (I think) drivers.

So, that's a route.
