I think it will be easy to do for the maintainer/developer of the restricted manager to add this. To see how USB printers get handled by HAL, see the /usr/lib/hal/scripts/hal_lpadmin script on Gutsy and /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-hal_lpadmin.fdi to see how to make such a script get used by HAL.
I have the LaserJet 1020 if you need to get tests done on the printer or certain commands applied to see how the printer answers, please tell me.
