Thanks to you I now have my printer working normally again :-)
The answer was in:
 
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=334166

Changing "yes" to "no" in the following config file resolved the problem:

 /etc/cups-autoconfig.conf
DisablePrintersOnRemoval=no

Easy when you know how !
I am extremely grateful to you.

It appears the error has not yet been corrected  - I re-installed all the cups 
files to see if that would work, but it may have taken that file off the DVD

I've been told that there is another bug - see id=350956

Thanks again - Charles
