Hello Chris,

first of all, did you install the package "gostscript"?
If I look into my yast setup (printer setup), I press cursor down and
can select between PS-Printer, HP-Printer and Others. choosing HP gives
me a list of HP-Printers, the 520 is not on the list, you should use a
compatible instead.

If this list does not pop up, i recon gostscript not or faulty installed
and would start my investigation there.

Jürgen
