In attachment #261642 the upper table shows
in the "Model" column the value what the printer
hardware itself reports via the USB.
Only this value can be used by YaST to find a matching driver.
When there is another model value used in the printer
description files (PPD files), YaST cannot find a matching
driver and all you can do is to manually search
for a matching driver.
YaST cannot fix such kind of non-matching values.
It could only be fixed by those who make the driver
with its associated PPDs (here the Gutenprint project)
but very likely the Gutenprint driver developers do not know
the printer hardware USB model strings of all those Hundreds
of models which are supported by the Gutenprint driver
so that such kind of non-matching values just happen.
