Problem with driver for HP Deskjet F2180

I cant see a relevant "driver" in there to click on amongst the hundreds
of HP choices. Does anyone know what works for this printer?
Its connected via USB. I am not sure if that info is relevant.

Cuz
=================
HP Deskjet F2180
Opensuse 10.3
Dell Optiplex GX150. P3
It runs waaay faster than Ubuntu. But its not great at finding stuff,
sound cards, printers etc.

Hi
You need to install hplip rpms and then run hp-setup.
