Thanks for the pointer Terry. The foomatic kit seems to have worked ... a little. I've posted a message on their forums but I'll re-post it here as well in case anyone else has any suggestions:

--------------------

Okay, so I grabbed the foomatic kit for this printer and got it working ... kinda. I can print some things but it's erratic at best. I'm able to print out of OpenOffice Writer with some success, but usually it just sits there and does nothing. When I look at the job queue though CUPS, it says the jobs's there, but nothing's happening - in fact I let it just sit there over night and nothing happened. Is there anything I can do to diagnose this problem? At this point I can't print anything anymore and killing the tasks don't seem to do anything - I simply can't print anymore and would have to completely restart the machine to be able to print again. And even that is sketchy at best, it might or might not work after a reboot. When a print job gets "stuck", this is what I see in my process list:
