As far as I remember, this is what you need: 1) A kernel with support to parallel port and printer; 2) A spooling software (lpr or lprng); 3) A filter, like magicfilter or apsfilter. I tried both, and magicfilter seemed simpler. Anyway, this is what I did to set up my Stylus 850. Your parallel port will be /dev/lp0, probably... There seems to be some alternate driver, ou upp file that you can use with ghostscript. There's a link to it in the Printer Compatibility Database.
