It was made for the older Gnome 2.xx, but since everyones moved to Gnome 3 with shell and Unity, it needs to be updated. But you shouldn't have too much trouble finding them.

I think, and don't quote me on this because it's been a while. If you log out of your account, there should be a desktop environment drop down menu, which should let you choose classic ubuntu or classic gnome or something along those lines. Unless they've removed that lately. I know it was there at least after the first release of Unity but not sure anymore. Anyways, if it's still there, you should have no problem using that guide.

Else, I can't help since I don't use ubuntu or even gnome/unity.

You might get away with just searching "Printing" in the Dash menu (the Ubuntu icon button)
