Re: [SLE] can't print in SuSE 10.0

After a new install of 10.0 over 9.3 I can't print (epson c70 to /dev/lp0). The cups debug doesn't seem to show anything wrong and yast detected the printer correctly. The firewall is not activated for the internal zone.
I recently did a fresh install of 10.0 and had trouble printing to an HP LJ4. With some help from the fine folks here I found I had to do three things to get the printer going ...
1) Turn off DMA on the parallel port in BIOS.
2) Install the correct printer driver through YaST and NOT test it there,
and then reboot after installation.
3) Manually edit the ppd file installed in /etc/cups/ppd to use "Letter"
instead of "A4" as the DefaultPaperSize.
