The usual:

What kind of printer?
What system are you running... 3.1?
What printing system are you using?   lprng?

I can print from Opera to an HP printer but I use the IFHP filters, not GS 
anything.

I use an HP DeskJet 695c and can print from Opera 5.0, but only the first
page.  I've never run into this with any other browser I've used, or any
other program for that matter .  Opera just stops after printing
the first page, usually leaving a double line of print on the last line. 
It may be assuming A4 size as opposed to letter (US - 8.5x11).  I've had
no problems using Opera for online purchases, however.  I've done a bit of
ordering with nary a problem :o)
