This printer is HP PCL 6 and Postscript compatible : it should work out of the box :] http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/ca/en/sm/WF06b/12144670-12145036-12145038-121... But as Patrick found, it seems to work on network port, not on // port. Dsant, happy with his HP postscript network printer. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

and it does with hplip
But as Patrick found, it seems to work on network port, not on // port.
didn't publish *any* findings, but... It appears to work fine as printer and/or scanner, fax not tested (lack of interest), via usb or network. and the hplip graphic supplies ink levels and drum life but browser access when networked provides much more information.

tks, I'm not familiar with that model, but HP printers seem to "just work." --doug
