+1 It's impossible for a beginner to install. I used Linux some years ago and hardware like printers and scanners needed a weekend's work to get anything like what you got with an hour or so with windows and the cd they gave you. HP still give you a cd but it has no linux content. There seems to have been little progress with installation and even though I'm reasonably literate, I can't get anywhere near the quality I see from my 'phone using a simple download-and-print-app. The app takes about a minute to install, it detects the printer and that's it. I can only conclude that everyone here is a Linux expert! It has been said that Linux makes you pay with time and work instead of money. Just once, though.
However, I don't understand your difficulties with YaST and cups. Of course you don't and I don't expect anyone here to either. You are an expert, probably of many years standing! I am amazed and gratified by

That's why we stay on this list, to help with the problems we learned answers to in the past. We are all volunteers and we are paying for our use of linux by helping others.
OK I'm getting somewhere. The 4500 works with Ubuntu. You just turn it on near the ap, put the password into it and that's it. The first time you have to print just one word but after that it's instantaneous. It's just as good quality as with android. They think the opensuse problem is: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups Do we have anything like that? And dhcp (?). But don't I have dhcp anyway if I can print something? And it works from a 'phone? And stupid. I didn't take my laptop to test on their wifi.
