Paul, If the test print works from YaST2, the rest of your system should be ready for print as well. Have you tried any other programs beside OOo to print from in KDE? Kmail, kword, kwrite, etc, even the shell? If OOo is working as mine is, you should have the ability to choose either "Generic" or your printer directly. I most often use Generic, but have on occasion used the other without problems. Although that doesn't help you much, it may just be something about OOo that is giving you grief.
Try other programs.
I did, I used the small editor ( kate?) and that didn't work either. Although, I'm not sure it was a valid test, if my print queue already has 3 or 4 entries, nothing else will print.

Ok, then you may want to clear out your queue. Usually in KDE I use the KJobViewer for print jobs waiting. You can also go to the queue directory to remove them. I believe you can look in /var/spool/cups for those files. You will have to be root to visit that directory. You might also want to check your printer settings again to be sure things are correct.
