Hi,
I’ve installed opensuse 12.2 with KDE4.9 Update. My printer Samsung ML-2250 is connected via USB to my WLAN Router Asus RT-N56U.
With the yast printer wizards I’m not able to find the printer. Any ideas ?
Thanks
I don’t own a Samsung printer, but I suspect you may need to install the required driver first:
SDB:Installing a samsung printer - openSUSE
Download Center: Download Software, Firmware, Drivers & Manuals | Samsung
Solved. The Solution was to add the printer in cups
localhost:631
via ipp with the connection param
socket://192.168.1.1:9100
and using the cups driver. Works fine. Thx
Thanks for the update. This may be helpful to others with similar hardware. FWIW, I prefer configuring via the CUPS web interface over the YaST utility. I’m glad the gutenprint driver works for you. 
Sorry but this was too fast. After the cups configuration it works at first. But now I get multiple different problems.
I’ve tried several setups and drivers and always end with strange effects (1 job ok, next job: ‘broken pipe’, or printing just the first two lines of a page in an endless loop and other strange effects)
Most of them connected with a ‘broken pipe’ message in var/log/cups/error_log:

Any ideas how to fix this ?
I coudn’t get my printer (Epson WorkForce 435) recognized by yast neither. I used the command line to configure it. Here is the command I used:
sudo /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p Epson -E -v socket://10.0.1.10 -P /usr/share/cups/model/manufacturer-PPDs/epson-inkjet-printer-escpr/Epson-WorkForce_435-en.ppd
Hope it help

For network printers, I think it is better to manually configure via the CUPS interface, especially for network printers. If you’re comfortable with the CLI, that’s okay too. I think that the OP’s issue is not related to configuration though. They reported it was working, so something else at play.
