Install package bug or better reportbug. Then you just type 'reportbug PACKAGENAME'. Make sure that your EMAIL variable is set correctly before that (with bash: 'export EMAIL="Your Name <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>' put this in your .bashrc)
Finding the correct package name could be tricky sometimes. In your case, is there something like kprint?

I have checked all of it again and here is my solution: Reinstall apsfilter by calling apt-get --purge remove apsfilter apt-get install apsfilter apsfilterconfig lpc reread DO NOT edit the printcap file manually!!! Check if regular printing works with lpr PSFILE or a2ps ASCII-FILE. Ok, this should work now. 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. :-) Hope you can say the same afterwards.
