Maybe the Suse box has a printer queue on the same server, and that's what you 
are seeing?

Going back to your statement that you can see the print jobs, but get no 
output, where exactly do you see the print jobs?  Is it on the cups interface 
Jobs page?  If so, get the name of the printer that they should be 
addressing, then look at the Printers page to see whether the printer has 
been stopped.  If it has, there is a button for Start Printer.  If that 
doesn't work, you could try from a root console issueing this command?
