I have been working on automating the process you need but it still is not
ready yet.  In the meantime, read the Readme.htm in the CUPS directory.
You need to create a PPD for the omni device and install it in the correct
CUPS directory.  Also, you need to install the CUPSToOmni filter in the
correctory directory.

Sorry I don't have a script yet for that.
