I haven't used PClos for long time, so I'm little rusty.. so please if someone have ideas how to work this out.. give me simple advise and step-by-step manual ;)

I don't even know where to start!

Go to PCC (Configure Your Computer) - Hardware - Set up Printers .......   and see what you can do there.

Also these might be of interest

Been there, done that..
it's weird because everything say's the PCLOS does find my printer etc. thingie, but it just won't print.
linux says it's printing but printer does nothing.

Have you tried booting the computer with the printer plugged in and powered on?
