The cups_base port is installing lpr/lpq (and friends) into
/usr/local/bin - and apparently kprinter insists on using those, rather
than the system versions.
I "temporarily" fixed it by deleting /usr/local/bin/lpr and
/usr/local/bin/lpq - and then symlinking /usr/bin/lpr & /usr/bin/lpq to
those targets... 

I searched through the kde config files for a place where I could
specify lpr/lpq path.. but no luck.. 

Perhaps the cups maintainer (Cc'ed) could add an OPTION for installing 
(or not) the cups-lpr binaries.
