printer problem and kde 3.2

[Martin Wegmann <debian_list@web.de>]

Hello, 

I upgraded kde 3.1.5 to 3.2
all my printers (network printers) were already configured  in kde 3.1.5.
in kde 3.2 when I try to print, every applications crash. 
Even the Control Center crashed after I opened the Peripheral-Printer 
interface and tried to set up new printers. The previously configured 
printers are not displayed, but 

lpsat -t gives: 
 
lbaliola@diomedea:~$ lpstat -t 
scheduler is running 
system default destination: 2200

2200: 
        printer is on device 'socket' speed -1 
        queuing is enabled 
        printing is enabled

        daemon present 
hp4500: 
        printer is on device 'socket' speed -1 
        queuing is enabled 
        printing is enabled 
        no entries 
        daemon present 
 
hence the printer are configured but something in kde 3.2 does not like them. 

any idea how to solve it or where to look for a solution? thanks in advance 
cheers Martin
