Well, check under the KDE menus - system or one of the others and see it there is a kcups or some such thing labeled printer admin or something similiar. There was in KDE 2.x and I believe 3.x has it, too. If not you can merge it - I believe I've seen a kcups in the emerge - do an emerge -s cups | more and see what comes out.

As for docs I menat check the cups docs - there are some in one of the docs area (/usr/share/docs) that were installed when cups was installed. KDE won't cover cups in detail as it's not really part of KDE. I also went to the cups web site and looked at the docs there.

i'm afraid i'm going to need a little more direction (sorry). running kde's help centre only brings up the "introduction to kde" and there's nothing in there about printing. the menu on the left of the help window is of no "help" either.

and what do you mean by "check the docs" which docs? i did a "man cups" and got nothing so i'm still lost here...

You can use the cups web interface (check the docs for how
to run it) or KDE should provide an interface to set it
up. You can use ipp or sockets. The user guide covers
that, too.
