> i'm trying to install it via http://localhost:631/admin since it seems that the printer's uri is nonsense.
This works :-)
Open http://localhost:631/admin in your favorite konqueror window
Choose "Add Printer"
Type some useful name
Choose the entry stating your printer name and USB (the strange one, not USB #1). #1 defaults to the first usb printer, if I remember right the painful time when I had two usb printers installed. The strange entry chooses always the correct printer.
Choose your favorite driver
