You are using an old version of Gutenprint that does not work on the 
BeagleBoard/ARMini. You need version 2.4, which works (though for the 
time being, it requires alignment exceptions to be off).

As Ian wrote, you need to use the PrintersGp directory as explained in 
the instructions.

See http://www.mw-software.com/software/gutenprint/donate.html for 
upgrade prices (bottom of the page: upgrades from previous versions of 
Gutenprint to version 2.4).
