1) You need to download foomatic-rip and foomatic-gswrapper from
linuxprinting.org (did you also get the ppd file for your specific
printer from linuxprinting.org?)

2) follow the directions from the web page how to install

3) stop and start cupsd

4) the driver you need if you downloaded the ppd above for your printer
will now show up when you do add printer from localhost:631
