I assume you did not install an rpm file since there isn't one yet for
2.7.9.  I would recommend you uninstall 2.7.9 and install the 2.7.7
package that came with 10.3

This is a permissions problem.

This is wrong permissions.  It should be root.lp 664.  This is setup via
a file in /etc/udev/rules.d.  It is 55-hpmud.rules in 2.7.7.

Check your udev file and see if you can get it fixed there, or install
the 2.7.7 package that came with 10.3.  That is all that is necessary to
get printing to work.  Scanning and printer status need finer
permissions, provided by a hal fdi file, done automatically with the
Yast scanner program.
