We need more info to help you:

Platofrm/Distro
Version of Scribus
Version of CUPS 
Version of Ghostscript

I know this is a 'real' postscript printer, not emulated Postscript, 
so unless something in the configuration is wrong, it should handle 
output directly from Scribus. In other words, your printer 
configuration should pass the Postscript directly without 
modification.
