Enter the following commands:

cc -O2 lx.c -o lx
sudo -s
cat /usr/share/cups/data/testprint.ps | \
gs -q -sDEVICE=pbmraw -r288 -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sOutputFile=- - | \
../lx > /dev/lp0
exit

If you get asked for a password by the "sudo -s" command, enter your 
password.

Does your printer print the CUPS test page now?

Note that this driver only does monochrome printing, with the black ink 
cartridge.
