I have installed OpenSuse 10.3 and my HP Photosmart 8450 refuses to print.
I have spent a lot of time trying to get it to work, but without sucess.
Could someone please help me to solve this problem.\

Works perfectly here (but I cannot get my Lexmark Laser 4039 to print :-( ).

Do you have the USB cable plugged into the right hole? It's easy enough to plug it into the network port.

If it is plugged in correctly then I suggest you REMOVE it in Yast's Control Centre/Hardware, unplug the power supply of the printer, plug the power back in again and let 10.3 come up with the message Found New Hardware -- or use Control Centre's Options Restart Detection of printers; the printer should be detected as an HP 8400 series printer.

Ciao.
