udev will not automate a prompt for printers, you need to go to the menu and
select Applications/System Settings/Printing. then you will have to enter the
root password at the prompt and click on the "New" button to start the new
printer wizard which will/should recognize your printer. you may want to check
out "linuxprinting.org" to make sure that your printer works, what driver to
use, how to configure for best results, etc.
