The following article from redhats website might be of interest, I went
searching for it as I remember having serious problems when I wanted to try and
use redhat-config-printer in that it didn't seem to be just using the database
but doing something else as well.
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-config-list/2003-December/msg00044.html
Unless the updated rpm's that Tim advertised have changed the way the redhat-
config-printer works I think you'll probably find it easier to do it through
cups directly instead of trying to use the gui.
Did you have a look through the CUPS configure instructions at
LinuxPrinting.org http://linuxprinting.org/cups-doc.html . Looks good enough
that you should be able to get the printer configured using CUPS directly. If
you really want to use the redhat-config-printer gui to setup the driver I wish
you the best of luck :)
