Yes... :-(

Your Linux system (made spring/summer 2005) is too old for this printer
(made fall 2005). Sorry.

The hpijs driver included in SuSE Linux 9.3 is not capable for this
new printer. But the really bad news is, that 10.0 doesn't include a
capable driver neither. :-(

But the upcoming, next version will have. :-)
