News, after some tests. I installed:

Thu Sep 11 2008 Thu Sep 11 2008 yast2-printer 2.17.11-1.2 i586
Thu Sep 11 2008 Thu Sep 11 2008 pkpgcounter 2.17-3.1 i586
Thu Sep 11 2008 Thu Sep 11 2008 hplip-hpijs 2.8.5-14.1 i586
Thu Sep 11 2008 Thu Sep 11 2008 hplip 2.8.5-14.1 i586



I tried these configurations, tried printing the demo page:

1) (cp1515n)

Description: HP Color LaserJet CP1515n Foomatic/hpijs, hpijs 2.8.5.23

Location:
Printer Driver: HP Color LaserJet CP1515n Foomatic/hpijs, hpijs 2.8.5.23
Printer State: idle, accepting jobs, published.
Device URI: usb://HP/Color%20LaserJet%20CP1515n

prints an error page:

PCL XL error
Subsystem: KERNEL
Error: IllegalAttribute
Operator: BeginPage
Position: 2

[P.S.: its a known bug of 2.8.5]


2) (cp1515n_plip)

Description: HP Color LaserJet CP1515n Foomatic/hpijs, hpijs 2.8.5.23
Location:
Printer Driver: HP Color LaserJet CP1515n Foomatic/hpijs, hpijs 2.8.5.23
Printer State: idle, accepting jobs, published.
Device URI: hp:/usb/HP_Color_LaserJet_CP1515n?serial=00CNAT83KGSH

Printer or cups hangs. Unclear.


3) (laser)

Description: Laser, via postscript generico
Location: local
Printer Driver: Generic PostScript level 2 Printer Foomatic/Postscript
(recommended)
Printer State: idle, accepting jobs, published.
Device URI: usb://HP/Color%20LaserJet%20CP1515n

The printer thinks for a while, prints nothing, returns to ready state. Maybe a timeout, but the postcript timeout in the printer is set to 300 seconds, and it wasn't that long.


4) (laser-hp) (default printer)

Description: Laserjet CP1515, con driver 3505, ps
Location: Local
Printer Driver: HP Color LaserJet CP3505 Postscript (recommended)
Printer State: idle, accepting jobs, published.
Device URI: usb://HP/Color%20LaserJet%20CP1515n

Prints correctly. Lots of configurable options. I will use this one till the problems with 1515 driver are solved.


5) (laser-hp-js)

Description: Laserjet CP1515, con driver 3505, js
Location: Local
Printer Driver: HP Color LaserJet CP3505 Foomatic/hpijs, hpijs 2.8.5.23
Printer State: idle, accepting jobs, published.
Device URI: usb://HP/Color%20LaserJet%20CP1515n

Prints almost correctly (text is a bit bigger than it should).
Has fewer options. I'll keep in case ps printing gest too slow sometime.


If some of this is reportable as bug somewhere... :-?
