I suggest apsfilter. I have much better experience with it:
apt-get --purge remove magicfilter
apt-get install apsfilter
apsfilterconfig
lpc reread
Check if regular printing works with lpr PSFILE or a2ps ASCII-FILE.
Then in KDE (logged in as the regular user) go to
ControlCenter->System->Printing and set the print system (at bottom) to
UNIX-LPD-print-system.
Now, printing for that user should work even from KDE. Test it by
printing a text file from Konqueror.
This worked for me and now my printing system is set up properly the
first time. :-)
