If your desktop is kde then klick - start icon, settings, control center, peripherals, printers, add printer, After adding your printer, start the cups printing daemon - /etc/ init.d/cups start. Also add the application rcconf using apt. rcconf simplifies the task of enabling / removing daemons. You can set cups to start automatically on boot.

you have to insert the neccessary modules. modprobe <whatever> what hardware? lspci will display all the hardware as recognised by the internal chipset ids - much more useful than vague taiwanese mufacturere's names. -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
