Oscar, you need an Edgy system.

If this system is a 32-bit PC you download the binary .deb packages from

http://www.linux-foundation.org/~till/tmp/ubuntu/edgy/foo2zjs/binary/

and install them with the "dpkg -i *.deb" command. After that make sure your printer's firmware is on your system (see earlier comment in this bug report). Now remove and re-add your print queue. After that everytime if you connect/turn on your printer its lights will blink for some seconds telling that the printer is receiving its firmware from the PC and you will be able to print.

On a 64-bit, PowerPC, ... Edgy download the files from

http://www.linux-foundation.org/~till/tmp/ubuntu/edgy/foo2zjs/

and do

sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get build-dep foo2zjs
dpkg-source -x foo2zjs*.dsc
cd foo2zjs-*
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
cd ..
sudo dpkg -i foo2zjs*.deb

and otherwise proceed as in the beginning of this comment.
