Are you able to connect to it from any other software programs? Is the printer powered on?

When your printer is on and connected to your Mac via USB, 2 USB ports should be listed next to the Connect button, xxxxbluetoothxxx and xxxserialxxxx. If the xxxserialxxx is not listed, you may not have the USB-serial drivers loaded. Go here and download and install::

I can't remember if the Mac needed rebooting afterwards, but it worked for me.
