Make sure your printer is switched on before you try to add it.  You
need to use the "usb" backend.  As root, run

  /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb

and it should list your printer.  If the list is empty, CUPS can't see
your printer--check that /usr/lib/cups/backend/usb exists and is
executable, and check with "lsusb" that the device is connected to the
system and detected by Linux.
