I s%^&r that network attached printing is the worst bugaboo I
have. Never did get my daughter's Linspire system to work
properly. Now I just installed OpenSuse 10.2 and just can't seem
to make it work. Now I can't even find the printer! On hers it
sees the printer, it just won't print. On the OpenSuse it can't
even find the printer with CUPS when I put in the IP and port of
192.168.0.50:641. It's a HP Laserjet 5P.
My windoze boxen haven't a problem, my wife's windoze box, no
problem. Why is Linux giving me such a pain? Searched for
tutorials and they all refer to directly attached via parallel or
USB, not IP address. Hints?
