Since the last kernel update which fixed opensuse not shutting down, I’ve lost both my HP printer and cannon. Cups says my HP is there, but won’t do anything. The cannon is nowhere to be seen, when I try to add a printer it shows the HP but won’t recognise the cannon, or print to the HP.
What happens if your off line and lose a printer, you’re stuffed. It seems stupid you don’t seem to be able to fix things within the system and need to go on line.
After two years of loving opensuse, I’m seriously thinking of dumping it as the problems are getting worse. As it is I’ve been going to Ubuntu for printing scanning and video, opensuse seems unable to handle these things any more unless you’re a geek.
