As far as I know this is a PostScript printer. Therefore you don't need any special driver but only the plain PPD file for this printer, see our online manual: /usr/share/doc/manual/suselinux-manual_en/manual/sec.drucken.prob.html ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 11.7.2. No Suitable PPD File Available for a PostScript Printer If the manufacturer-PPDs package does not contain any suitable PPD file for a PostScript printer, it should be possible to use the PPD file from the driver CD of the printer manufacturer or download a suitable PPD file from the Web page of the printer manufacturer. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- or see our support database: http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:CUPS_in_a_Nutshell For example you can download the PPD from http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-Color_LaserJet_2605 (go to "custom PPD"). Then either use "lpadmin" to set up the queue directly or use YaST and choose something like "add PPD to database" in YaST. HPLIP 1.6.7 packages built for Suse Linux 10.1 for 32-bit Intel compatible (i586) and for 64-bit AMD (x86_64) are available for testing (and only for testing) at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/jsmeix/unsupported/hplip/10.1/ There are incompatibilities with our official HPLIP packages in Suse Linux 10.1. Be prepared that your existing configuration may no longer work with the new packages and/or that there may be no YaST support for the new packages, see for example https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=184798 Note the "unsupported" and read the README: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/jsmeix/unsupported/hplip/10.1/RPMS/README Kind Regards Johannes Meixner -- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5 Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 90409 Nuernberg, Germany WWW: http://www.suse.de/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
