i found this guide to setting up an Laserjet 3100 > almamedia.fi/~jk/lj3100/

However, i've managed to get get the file patched, but when i try the make command
i just get errors....

Actually those aren't errors, they're warnings. Moreover they may very well be inconsequential warnings. In any case if the compilation is aborting its not because of the messages you posted.
