About the printer drivers...
============================
Which distribution you have would be the best guide to what to do.
Ghostscript would probably have a 'compatible' driver, but the real
art is setting up the print filter to convert text/ps to the ESC/P
commands. I have done this one time a while ago, but there are
packages that will help.
Have a look at the distribution printer setup or check out
ftp://sunsite.anu.edu.au/pub/Linux/system/printing/
I have heard that magicfilter is good.
About X screen blanking...
==========================
It is a normal X11R6 option controllable by xset. Do a 'man xset'
and then have a go at
xset s noblank
Cheers,
Matt
