The default installation of SuSE printers uses A4 paper, which will cause your printer to hang up. It happened to me and it took a while to figure out what was going on. CUPS also has to be told (separately, I think) what the paper size is. For Americans, it should be letter size. The setting is in the filter parameters of the printer.
Since I ask lots of questions, perhaps I can do a good turn for others here.

If you properly setup your locale in KDE the paper size will be properly set as well to letter. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998
