Martin - that's correct.  Quickest way to clarify would be to check the 
"AddPrinter dialogue" screenshots I previously attached, but:

In Breezy, when I selected "Add a printer", my LaserJet-6p was automatically 
identified under "Use a detected printer".  In Dapper, the same action yields 
"no printer detected" - I have to manually select the port (LPT #1).  Then, the 
driver selection proceeds the same as under Breezy.

One other note - gnome-cups-manager is VERY slow.  I just opened it and 
selected "Properties" for my default printer and it took c. 30 seconds to bring 
up the properties dialogue.  I'd thought it sluggish before but this is a new 
level of "slow".  Don't know if it's related or not...
