CUPS 1.7.5 is not in openSUSE Factory: ----------------------------------------------------------------- $ osc list openSUSE:Factory cups | grep tar cups-1.5.4-source.tar.bz2 ----------------------------------------------------------------- CUPS 1.7.5 is only in the devel project "Printing" and therein only in the source package cups-SLE12: ----------------------------------------------------------------- $ for p in cups cups-SLE12 cups154-SLE12 ; \ do echo -n "$p : " ; osc list Printing $p | grep tar ; done cups : cups-1.5.4-source.tar.bz2 cups-1.5.4-source.tar.bz2 cups-SLE12 : cups-1.7.5-source.tar.bz2 cups154-SLE12 : cups-1.5.4-source.tar.bz2 ----------------------------------------------------------------- When you use CUPS > 1.5.4 see https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=735404 In particular you usually need the filters that are no longer provided by CUPS which are now upstream at OpenPrinting.org that openSUSE provides in the cups-filters RPMs. What is usually needed by CUPS 1.7.5 is recommended in its RPM spec file so that installing it with zypper's defaults (that also installs recommended packages automatically) should "just work", cf. --------------------------------------------------------------------- $ osc cat Printing cups-SLE12 cups.spec ... # Since CUPS 1.6 all all non-Mac filters are dropped # (in particular pdftops, imagetops, imagetoraster, and texttops). # Linux-specific printing filters for CUPS are now provided by # the cups-filters package. # But those filters are not strictly required for CUPS # (e.g. on client systems in the network where the filtering hapens # on a CUPS server or on a CUPS server with only "raw" queues) # so that a weak Recommends fits better: Recommends: cups-filters ... $ osc cat Printing cups-filters cups-filters.spec ... # When a user installs the cups-filters main package, he usually # expects to get "the whole cups-filters stuff" installed # (i.e. also all sub-packages). Recommends: cups-filters-foomatic-rip = %{version}-%{release} Recommends: cups-filters-cups-browsed = %{version}-%{release} ... --------------------------------------------------------------------- Regarding "weak Recommends fits better" cf. https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=776080#c38 https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=776080#c39 https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=776080#c40 Furthermore in your particular case: Plain text pronting does not work without texttops.
