How is the printer connected to your machine - parallel port, usb, network, or?
I'm not sure which cups mydsl extension you're using, but to check if cups "sees" your printer, you could use one of the backends, eg:Code Sample | $ /opt/cups-1.3.5/lib/cups/backend/usb or $ /opt/cups-1.3.5/lib/cups/backend/parallel |
Note that you will need the ppd file for your printer in order to use cups - if you use the hplip_ppd.tar.gz mydsl extension this would be "HP-DeskJet_420C-hpijs.ppd.gz" (or at least this would be a good place to start).
