Ok issue resolved! /etc/cups/printers.conf could not be replaced / deleted etc due to the "i" [immutable] flag.
To see these attributes run : sudo cd /etc/cups/ & lsattr To change the attribute of printers.conf [while in the /etc/cups/ directory] type : chattr -i printers.conf You can now overwrite it, delete it , move it etc. Installation of cups updates now runs smoothly and updates properly.
