Hi, thanks for your answer.
I had indeed tried it and it fails, unfortunately, with the following messages:
cups-daemon is already the newest version (2.1.3-4).
printer-driver-gutenprint is already the newest version (5.2.11-1).
printer-driver-gutenprint set to manually installed.
cups-filters is already the newest version (1.8.3-2ubuntu3.1).
cups-filters set to manually installed.
ghostscript is already the newest version (9.18~dfsg~0-0ubuntu2.3).
cups-ppdc is already the newest version (2.1.3-4ubuntu0.2).
cups-ppdc set to manually installed.
cups is already the newest version (2.1.3-4ubuntu0.2).
cups set to manually installed.
cups-core-drivers is already the newest version (2.1.3-4ubuntu0.2).
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:

After `sudo apt-get -f install`, it removed cups and marked a bunch of
cups packages as unnecessary
`sudo apt-get autoremove` removed them.
Now when I try to re-install cups, I get this error:
```
☀ sudo apt-get install cups cups-daemon cups-core-drivers
Mod master
