I use Suse 9.1, but I'm wondering why you wouldn't want to use yast for for setting up your printer. I use it at a Windows-based office to print to both network and local printers and Yast made it a piece of cake.
Eric: I am trying to set up a HP PSC 2110 all in one Printer, Copier, Scanner, and the all in one machine use HPOJ driver and the setup instruction say to use webmin (ie: localhost:631) and specificly caution against using Yast or Kde. It also cautions against using a USB device as the connection for the printer. The connection device in my case is ptal mlc:usb:PSC_2100_Series . This connection device is only seen by webmin and not Yast or KDE printer set up.
This is interesting (I had a similar fight with SuSE 9.0 and an all-in-one from HP). Could you please tell me where you found those instructions? I'm about to re-install that system with SuSE 9.1 (yes, not upgrade) and although I hope the problem has been addressed it's always a good idea to have a backup solution ;-). As an aside - wouldn't it be good if all those scanners and devices would have their buttons work under Linux? Regards, /// P ///
