SUSE has a habit to change package default configurations
without changing the package documentation accordingly.

With regard to CUPS they use now the "RunAsUser" directive.

Also, they use "AuthType BasicDigest" (which means you must
use "lppasswd -a root" first of all to add root to the printer
admin data base.....)

HTH.
(And direct your complaints to SUSE, please)
