First, the cups and gutenprint packages must be installed if they're not.
Start the cupsd daemon if it's not yet started.
With any browser, go to <http://localhost:631/>
Now, click [Add Printer] and follow instructions.
Enter general info in the first page (printer symbolic name and description).
In the second page, choose a backend.
Since it seems to be a USB printer, an entry containing the printer name and the word USB, should appear in the list. Select it.
If it's not there, then, most probably, there's a low level issue with USB.
(e.g. it might be disabled in the BIOS setup)
In that case, you should check the output of /usr/libexec/cups/backend/usb, check whether you've a /dev/usblp0 (or /dev/usb/lp0) device and whether you can output data to them.
Have a look at /proc/bus/usb/devices, etc.
Assuming you've no USB issue, select the brand and model name in the next form pages.
Now, print a test page.
You may read tutorials and HOWTOs about cups. Just google for it.
Met vriendelijke groet,
