I have one of these and it works great. You need to install the pnm2ppa
port. When it finishes installing it will ask you to put a certain block of
text into your printcap, do this. 
Also you need to edit /usr/local/etc/pnm2ppa.conf to comment out the
"version ERROR" line and uncomment the next line down. 
Create the /var/spool/ps directory and chown it to root.daemon. (It should
look just like /var/spool/lpd permission-wise.) Then kill and restart lpd.

I'm using the parallel port kernel config stuff cut-n-pasted from LINT, I
don't know if it's different from GENERIC.
