In addition to Ray's answer:
linux SuSE works with Cups as printing system. You should be able - I asume
cups was installed by SuSE as the standard- to call http://localhost:631
through a browser ( if not, cups is not running ). This will give you a menu
which allows you to install a new printer as a remote one, just giving the ip
address of the network printer. Install it, as Ray suggest, as a row printer.
Hope this will help
Edgar
