system restoration from file back up

yast control centre suse 11.2

under system restoration ( restore files from back up archive) the restore module says the archive can be read from a local file which is already on the system ( it is on a mounted file system). if this is done would existing data such as printer drivers etc be deleted in the process.

They'd be preserved, using Clonezilla as a backup tool.
I cannot say regarding other backup programs.
