Now I want to attach that printer from the second SuSe10.1-System, I always get unable to connect to 192.168.2.3 on port 631; the 192.168.2.3 is the address of teh box on which the printer is installed. I amn able to reach that box from the remote box.

By default CUPS listens on and allows connections from the Loopback interface only (127.0.0.1). To allow remote connetions you may either use the Web admin page or hand edit /etc/cups/cupsd.conf.
To hand edit, change the following:
1. Listen 127.0.0.1:631 ==> Listen *:631
2. Under <Location /> add
Allow @LOCAL
