i just checked the cupsomatic-ppd package and it does include the z11.  so it 
appears that all you need to add is the cupsys-client and cupsys-bsd 
packages; then configure with a browser at localhost:631 as noted by the 
earlier poster.  the gimp1.2-print package has a different driver that will 
also work.  either cupsomatic-ppd or gimp1.2-print should suffice, although 
the quality may vary on individual machines.

the lpr and apsfilter packages are not necessary and can be safely 
removed/purged from your system before adding the cupsys-client package.
