Uhm... I won't recomment that as SuSE now ships with it's own (working)
Xprint RPM (the conflicts in your log are caused by the issue that the
Xprint client/maintaince tools now are part of the base X11
installation) - just go into "yast", search for "xorg-xprt-*" (or how
the package is called, I don't rememeber the full name ad-hoc). You may
have to do an extra "insserv -d /etc/init.d/xprint" (I am not sure
whether this was fixed in SuSE 9.2final) to get the Xprint server
(re-)started at system startup...
