If the notification area isn't on your panel, it can be added by right-clicking on the panel, select "Add to panel..." and then select it from the list. I'm not sure offhand which program is actually responsible for putting this icon in the notification area, but it is enabled by default. The little printer icon shows up for me when i print from my fedora 6 desktop. On my fedora 5 desktop, there may be a bug, since the little printer icon doesn't always show up. But i'm not going to sweat it, since i've basically completed my transition to fedora 6, and version 7 is going to be released soon anyway. - gabriel
