I would suggest adding http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/jsmeix/openSUSE_10.2/ as an installation source in Yast, install the 2.7.7 package via Yast, as well as the Yast scanner module from the above repo. Then, either add your users to the lp group, or add and entry to /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor for your device (if running Yast to add your scanner doesn't work) as per the instructions found at http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=d868aa60707241117x3de413aax8f7940e5da3c4a7a%40mail.gmail.com&forum_name=hplip-help and you should be good to go. I am running 2.7.7 under 10.2 x86_64 and it is working very well here. HTH.
