cupsys-driver-gimpprint-data package unavailable for Dapper?

Clive,

Thanks for responding.

Yes, it's connected directly by USB. And the problem is not just 
reprinting. It's any printing. Every time I try to print anything, a 
test page or anything else, the printer does not respond at all. The job 
shows as being "complete" immediately, but the printer does not respond 
with any action whatsoever.

I've tried turning the printer on and off and resetting it, but that 
does not seem to have any effect.

Here is my cupsd.conf file:
