I read somewhere that the yast module is not maintained and in fact it's much worst than plain cups
No, I don't think that is true.

surely there have been quite a few new model printer since last October.
Yes, but in openSUSE Leap you will not get an update of those till the next Leap release. You might get an update for a printer, and break others. So nothing touched.
but I usually use hplip or cups, rarely look at yast-printer for some years.
By the same reason, CUPS itself is not updated till next Leap release. There is a repository with the next version, though. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" (Minas Tirith))
