You've likely tried all the normal tricks for a printer, but, just in case, here are my generic suggestions (I'm not familiar with the specific printer): Check out http://localhost:631/, and see if you can configure your printer there (assuming you have cupsys installed). Install printconf, and run it in your terminal as root. Install foomatic-filters-ppds and/or linuxprinting.org-ppds, and try http://localhost:631/ and/or printconf once again.
