That's the hair I've torn out! I KNOW that this machine with SuSE 10.0 would print to the HP Laserjet 2200D, but with SuSE 9.3, I can't get it to print to anything, altho it tries to access printers.
That's odd, I ran 9.3 on the desktop for over a year at work. Print setup was quick and easy, and I printed stuff on network attached printers many times daily - what steps did you take to set up the printer in yast? If not, where did you run into trouble in the effort to print the test page?
(10.0 ruined my mail, so I went back to 9.3.)
You've got something else going on there - I've run mail clients and mail servers on 10.0 and never saw a piece of mail lost.
I have tried, in Yast, the two possible PostScript choices, one without Foomatic and one with. Both of them send _something_ to the printer, but nothing comes out, and the light just keeps blinking. If I could get this working, I could live with SuSE for quite a while, while I try to get the XP machine working again, but without a printer, I'm hopelessly lost. And I do need PostScript, since OO won't output a spreadsheet without it.
Can't help you with expee, I've certainly no use for it. As far as postscript, you can only use the postscript printer driver if you are printing to a postscript printer. Why not just choose the printer model from the menu in the printer setup tool, and let yast decide what driver to use? OOO doesn't care what kind of printer driver you use, only that you can print.
