This package was tested with CUPS 1.3.11 and Star
TSP700II(connected through parallel port).
After that you can print using lpr command or just
echo -ne "\ntext you want to print\n\x1B\x64\001" >
/dev/lp0 (last charecters are for cutting).
Note: if your printer is connected through parallel port
you need to 'modprobe lp' on boot.
