Well, now this case is solved. First: lpd WAS running, ports were open and lpd.perms-entry "ACCEPT SERVICE=R FORWARD" wasn't usefull. That thing with p1 and pt1 was a cut-and-paste mistake, not on client/server only in the mail.
The problem was the lprng-installation itself. I've tried local print with the client (pt5) and I got this "unable to print" message again. In fact, the client wasn't a productional machine yet, I re-installed the total system, by the way updated to SuSE 8.2, and guess what happened? Sure, everything was fine. Afterwards I experienced that old client pt5 had a Cups-Installation some time ago. Cups has been replaced with lprng, a thing I didn't knew. Think that this caused problems on the system ... That means: My client/server installation is working fine, thank you for your tips! I'm really sorry, that the problem was a bad installation, could have check this before posting :( Greets and many thanks from austria!
