The best would be to directly download the drivers from debian (using apt-get install). Not from an unverified website. If you can do so, then you can add the driver package as an additional software: https://tails.boum.org/doc/first_steps/persistence/configure/#index13h2 That step is probably the one missing in order to have a fully working persistence of your printer.
