1) #370403: cupsys breaks all of KDE printing
2) #375477: kdeprint: kprinter freezes on network cups printers
5) #307545: kdeprint: smb printing, config file incorrect
6) #379216: Error: unable to create printer (test or real printer)
It seems that the problem might be due to kdeprint using some
"semi-official" internal calls which have been fully depreciated in the
newest version of CUPS. I also have the impression that there are
several related known upstream issues, which added to the confusion
about whether the problem is now resolved or not.
