Its broken, and when it was installed here, it killed anything kde related just by hovering the mouse over a kprinter related name in the menu's. Update to 1.1.20 or 1.1.21rc2.

I did, along with gimp-print-4.2.7 which has since turned into gutenprint-5.0beta2, and all of it works great -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
