Also add the "Epson AcuLaser C1100" to opensuse... would be a BIG time saver .... André at 18-04-15 06:00 David C. Rankin wrote:

13.2 Hi We currently have a HP printer which only works when the computer it is connected to is on. Is there a wifi printer we could use instead for laptops and phones? Whilst I can find information about the 'phone, no one has any information as to whether it will work from an opensuse laptop. Any recommendations based on experience using this setup? Thanks, B
I don't know if the computer it is connected to can be left - ON or if you have a network connection on the printer, but it is almost impossible to beat the rugged performance of the LaserJet series. I have owned the LJ3's, 4's, 4100's and 4200's and all still work great. (I recently lost a board in one of the LJ4's purchased in 1994 or 95.
If you have a Linux box you can leave running continually, it is hard to be a cups server setup where the printer is made available to both wired and wireless clients (including phones via avahi). Some of the newer printers have various published "Wifi" print capability, but I've yet to find one that works reliably. I'm interested to see the other solutions and recommendations posted.
