I deleted the printer and then logged in as root and setup the printer again. Tried to use the hp-setup program to install but couldn't, had to use cups. It worked ok. Then used hp-setup to modify settings like pretty print which I set up manually before. It works great! The output of the pdf file is actually better than the windows printout. It fits the page better. I'm using Suse 10.3. This is a single linux box with usb printer, deskjet 5940. For problems similar to this I recommend checking the forum for your linux distro, which is where I got the idea about setting up as root. I'm hoping the "resume printer" problem is also solved but haven't had enough usage time to be sure.
good luck,
Bob
