It's a windows printer.  It's not listed in the supported Cups printers. 
Here's the list of Minolta:
MINOLTA-QMS 2060 Print System
MINOLTA-QMS 2425 Print System
MINOLTA-QMS 3260 Print System
MINOLTA-QMS 4032 Print System
MINOLTA-QMS magicolor 3100
MINOLTA-QMS magicolor 330
MINOLTA-QMS magicolor 6110

The Lexmark E323 laser has postscript and works great with Linux, but it
cost around $399.  It's black, fast, and has never failed me (using RH
Linux 9.0 and lpt port).  If you want a network printer get the E323n

This printer works with the driver on the disk, the one you download from
lexmark and even the default postscript printer driver.  Works out of the
box on Linux!
