I recently got a new computer (openSUSE 10.2, x86_64, fully patched) which does not have a parallel port. However I have an old HP Laserjet 4M (old, but works well) which only has a parallel port connection. This is at home, and I have a small D-Link DI-704P router which has a built in parallel port for sharing a printer....
My LaserJet 4M has http://tinyurl.com/2eeqqk and works perfectly using the correct driver and 192.168.0.4. YaST shows driver "HP LaserJet 4MP v2013.103 Postscript (recommended)". Picking the correct driver from the many possibles was an exercise in frustration for me and may be why you can't get yours to work in all apps on your router's parallel port. I too got the blinks a few seconds and quits trying from incorrect drivers. Trying the rest of the ppd files or finding the one I use might be your immediate solution. -- " It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible."
