That is always an option but you may not have exhausted the possibility of manually selecting the printer.
OK, I'll defer that option for a little while...
Go to Configuration, Printing, CUPS WWW admin tool
An error occured while loading http://localhost:631/: Could not connect to host localhost (port 631)
In case someone can determine that more packages are missing from my system, I did a list of packages (rpm -qa | sort) on a similar 9.1 system and the problem 9.2 system - then created a nice table to compare them. It will be at this site for a few days:
MDK91: http://www.execulink.com/~fbax/MDK92upg/rpmSandy.txt
MDK92: http://www.execulink.com/~fbax/MDK92upg/rpmChris.txt
