Once you have Debian installed, it is (or should be) as simple as 
opening a terminal and typing
sudo aptitude install printer-driver-gutenprint
and aptitude will take care of it from there.
(and people say linux is hard...good luck if you stick with a 
proprietary os, I haven't used a MAC since OSX was brand new,
but I don't remember anything being this simple.
