Well, I don't recall whether there's a link to control-panel from the
KDE menus or not. I'd assume so. Either way, the command line is alot
quicker (and much easier to describe!).

What happens when you try to print? Does it just not come out? Do you
get an error message? Try the command:
lpr /etc/profile
from the command line. Does it print?
Are there things stuck in the print queue? Use the command 'lpq' to
see. The 'lpc' command can sometimes be of help in sorting out
problems. Give it a try and when the prompt comes up, type 'status all'
then 'restart all'. That should at least get things out of the queue
(and post the info from status all, it will help to debug the problem).
