I tried that, trying tcp, everything else. When I test remote socket access, it says cups cannot connect to server. (ip address should be 192.168.0.31) When I go to localhost:631, it show it running, but cannot get into admin or configure printer even with root password.

But you haven't dealt with the problem that 9.3 is trying to print to a parallel port printer as shown above. Is this a network connected printer or a parallel port printer?
If network, what port does it use?
Go to k-menu(bottom left green button)-->Utilities-->Printing-->Printing Manager
At the bottom click on the Administrator Mode button and enter root's password. Highlight the printer by single clicking on it. Then click on the properties tab. Next click on the interface tab on the left. Report back as to what the interface is, the full text as shown. You either have it set as a paralell printer or have the IP/port set wrong.

Printer type: Network Printer URI: socket:192.168.0.31:9100 This is the setting from YAST. I also enabled port 9100 on the firewall. Art
