printers don't usually work in wine.. direct hardware access down lpt0 or 1 is what you need..

investigate cups

put sudo in front of any terminal command.. or if you want persistent root.. then sudo su -

password will be your password for your account (and is probably still in the globally readable unencrypted passwd file)

How long have you been using n00b and you don't know about sudo??

/me shakes head in disbelief.

Cups/printing manager under system drop down menu, should find your printer on the port you connected it to (be it either lpt1 or USB), then you should get a list of available drivers to install that would be compatible with your make and model.

should be incredibly straight forward. i got my Epson printer up and going in less than a minute under Debian (lenny and sid flavours) and will work across my network from an XP machine as well.
