Yes you do need a C compiler to proceed with the installation of CUPS you have downloaded, as the CUPS website suggests have you tried searching for CUPS binaries for SCO otherwise you will need to locate gcc for SCO Unix?

Unix printing is usually postscript but there are conversion binaries around which is presumably what CUPS will do for you.
If you want to try not using cups you could try the ps2pcl tools mentioned here: Linut's SCO stuff.(ghostpcl section) and do something like:
Code:
$ ps2pcl < filetobeprinted.ps | lp
