URL: Http://192.168.1.101
Mac address: XXXXXXXXXX(security reasons of course)
Hostname: hp7210
IP Address: 192.168.1.101

I got it to work. I did a network search in the printer config tool for the ip address of the printer and opensuse configured it automatically. Amazing. It was so much easier than the windows software to set up the network fuctions.
