I had 16 printer drivers installed in my now borked Xubuntu 14.04.1.
They have not been changed since the last full system backup, which is
located in /media/jjj/Movies/Backups/Full_System_Backup/. From a long
time ago I know that you can stop cups, copy the /cups folder from the
backup, and then restart cups. The cups folder used to be
in /etc/init.d/, but nowadays Ubuntu seems to keep it directly in /etc.
So I rename the new cups folder to cups.old and then issue the command:

sudo cp /media/jjj/Movies/Backups/Full_System_Backup/etc/cups /etc/

And I get:

cp: omitting directory 
'/media/jjj/Movies/Backups/Full_System_Backup/etc/cups’

To make sure I was entering the command properly I used the tab to
complete the paths.

What does this mean and how do I copy the folder to my new Xubuntu?
