Look at Minolta's documentation and see if it emulates a printer you can find a driver for.

Congratulations, that is a GDI printer (aka Windows only).
I think, if a PC shares it, and you install DAVE, DAVE can act as a Postscript RIP. But other than that, I think this is a no-go.

That means the Windows machine has to share the printer, i. e. it mustn't be shut off.
Didn't you think about this before buying the printer? I wouldn't recommend a printer that isn't capable of at least some sort of PCL, but Postscript is of course much better than this.
