ORA-00955: name is already used by an existing object

Can any one tell me why I get this error? Surely if using CREATE OR REPLACE it should not matter if the object already exists?

CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE package_printertype_scitex AS *
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00955: name is already used by an existing object

Package body created.
