You have bad files.  I just did the following on an F14 system:

# rpm -e z600cups z600llpddk
# rpm -ivh z600\*
Preparing...                ###########################################

   1:z600llpddk             ###########################################
[ 50%]
   2:z600cups               ###########################################
[100%]

No problem with the RPMs....
