In the popup shown in attachment #291430
there is a "Details" button.
Also many other error popups have such a button.
Did you ever use them?
The "Details" buttons should have shown you something
like what I found in your y2log:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
/usr/bin/lpstat: Unable to connect to server
..
DNS fwd/rev mismatch: local host != nil
localhost [127.0.0.1] 631 (ipp) : Connection refused
..
Cannot access cupsd on 'localhost'
-------------------------------------------------------------------
As long as theer is no access to the cupsd on 'localhost'
nothing regarding printing and printer setup can work
which is perfectly detected by yast2-printer and
reported to you in attachment #291430
I think that the most interesting error message is
"DNS fwd/rev mismatch: local host != nil"
which comes from the command
netcat -v -w 1 -z localhost 631
This is neitgher a yast2-printer bug nor a printing sytem bug
but an issue in your basic network setup.
Something is broken so that the name "localhost" cannot
be resloved correctly.
For further analysis provide your /etc/hosts file.
