Brother, don't do that. Honest. Upgrade your RPM's to Fedora Core 1 or
later, and re-install cups. and its dependencies from that. Better yet,
upgrade your whole OS to a newer one that includes the latest/greatest,
because the ability of cups to recognize new printers and handle the queues
correctly is a long and painful development process still occuring as we
speak.
