Hello. I am trying to connect to a networked printer that doesn't have a mac driver. I can connect to via ip, but when it prints it comes out a gobley gook character encoding stuff. Then the printer just keeps printing blank pages.

Mac OSX 10.4.8
Konica Minolta bizhub 161f
ethernet

I think the printer is connected to an windows xp machine which is connected to a router.

I looked at gutenprint/gimp print and didn't see the printer in the list.

Any advice?
