Your printer manufacturer needs to provide a openprinting distribution
independent driver package as described here:
http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/WritingAndPackagingPrinterDrivers
This would allow automatic download and installation of the manufacturers
printer driver by system-config-printer as already implemented by this
specification:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/printerdriverautodownload since
Ubuntu Intrepid.
As mentioned the system-config-printer part is implemented, therefore masking
this task as fixed.
You should ask your manufacturer to provide a distibution independent package
that allows their printer driver to be installed automatically on Linux in
general (not only Ubuntu).
** Changed in: system-config-printer (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Fix Released
