Please trim quotes.
I have a AVM Fritz!Box 7170 with an embedded Linux. It has a USB2 port
for HD's and Printers. I just plugged it in and the Fritz!Box
immediately recognised it and allows the printers to be published. I
went to my OpenSUSE 10.3 and deleted the CUPS printer and installed a
remote "Jet-Direct" printer by just entering the IP and port 9100. It
worked first shot!!

FireFox 3.0.3 (i.e. 3.0.1 - 3.0.3) and Thunderbird 2.0.0.17 (i.e.
2.0.0.14 - 2.0.0.17) also does not work with CUPS on OpenSUSE 10.3.

With the Fritz!Box it works like a dream in 5 minutes setup!

I am not sure what your problem was exactly, but the above certainly
isn't categorically true. I am running 10.3, with Firefox (64 bit) 3.03
and Thunderbird 2.0.0.17 (64 bit) (though I should also stipulate I do
update my Cups from OBS Printing Repo), and I have no problem printing
to either my cups printers, nor my cups-pdf printer, nor the dialog box
pdf option.
