Label Printer Drivers

Hi,

I have just purchased a zebra label printer - 2844 ( 
http://www.zebra.com/id/zebra/na/
en/index/products/printers/desktop/lp2844.html 
) . But it only comes with Windows printer drivers and I
would really 
love to be able use Linux / Ubuntu with this printer.

Does anyone know a way of getting this to work or a place to
find such 
mysterious drivers?

Thanks,

James

Based on a quick Google of "lp 2844 linux", it
appears to be a plain text
(just like an old line-printer).

Going to System->Preferences->Printing->New
Printer->Forward->Zebra, there
appears to be three "EZPL1, EZPL2, ZPL Label
Printer"---try those and see if
any of them work.

Failing that, look for the simplest Epsom printer in the
list and
experiment!  It's the best way to find out.
