Jeremy,
I really have no idea, I've only dealt with parallel printers in Linux (I
have only one USB device, and that's for video games :)). You may want to
make sure that you have all of the appropriate USB devices loaded with
'modprobe -v <module>' and that the computer connected to the printer can
print through it. From there, follow the directions on the CUPS website,
they may have some info in the FAQ or ML that talk about USB printers.
Also, you may want to try a search on Google.
