I have just bought one of these printers, and am having trouble getting
it to work with ghostscript. It is connected via a USB port, and it
responds momentarily when I send anything directly to /dev/ulpt0.  

I would appreciate the correct parameters for ghostscript - I think it
should work with device ijs and 'server' ijsgimpprint, which has been
installed in /usr/local/bin.

Some of the instructions recommend CUPS and FooMatic, and seem much more
complicated than I ought to need for a local installation.

I tested the printer with Windows, and it does work.
