    Introduction: for a couple of years I wasn't able to make my Canon LBP6000 work directly on openSUSE. And I also couldn't print from openSUSE to the LBP6000 if I attached it to Windows (I tried XP, Vista & Win 7).

    I just now tried openSUSE 12.3 and found that it talks to the printer on a Win 7 or 8 box so I better write it down here so I can make it work on the next versions of openSUSE.
