YaST, not CUPS setup. I insist.
I have no particular liking for Yast when it obscures what's going on.
I don't care. Just do it!
Perhaps if you tell me what advantage there is in using yast over the CUPS browser at 631?
Simply that YaST knows openSUSE quircks.
I'm a lot more comfortable with cups as cups rather than cups as insulated by yast.
Just try :-) I see in YaST 10 drivers for your printer. I told you to install them all and try them all. Do you see those 10 in cups? If yes, install them the cups way, if you refuse to use yast. If you don't see them, use yast. But if you use cups to install those ten and all fail to print, you know I'll blame you for not using yast >:-)

I don't seem to have ANY 32bit things on my system. I also have printer-driver-brlaser
