Assuming this did not work I would check dependencies. I use KDE with
SuSE and issues surrounding print GUI managers is likely a missing
package for gnome-print. Also I will assume you are using CUPS so try
using a webbrowers and http://localhost:631/ which will supply most
necessary configurations.
