    The solution.

    Download 1210 PPD file from this web page:

     http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-PSC_1210

    Copy the PPD file to /usr/share/cups/model/HP.

    Install printer as typically would using Yast. PSC 1210 is now a driver
    choice offered under HP.

    Cheers,

    Robin
