Red face Printer Problem

Just setup my printer, HP PSC500, and was plesently surprised that Suse has it listed and found it, "/dev/LP0".

Now I need to know how to use it.

I have looked in OpenOffice and it is not listed, on a generic printer is listed and of course will not print.

Thumbs up nevermind, mucks is brilliant ...

Well that was easy ...

Go to Suse's Control Center and set the flipping thing up, donut.



You know, I like this 'game', it's good fun.

Now you've taken to answering yourself.

Utilities-Printing-Print Manager- set up your printer by choosing Add- Add Printer/Class and follow the prompts.

Then to print you just need to open whatever you want to print and choose File- Print.

Naw, I just went to YaST and followed my nose.

Amazing how many "tools" there are ... but I have your version saved in a OO doc ready for future reference.

Remove, reinsert... if it fails again read directions for changing ink. If all directions are being followed and still fails.... try another cartrige?
