Hi Daniel

The post solved the issue! Thanks a lot!

I found that it is possible to get CUPS (partial) working with this:

In home-directory .kde/share/config/kdeprintrc
[General]
PrintSystem=cups

It is difficult to get it working as it should though. It can find the 
printer and it can even find a network printer installed on another 
OpenBSD machine with CUPS running.


In my case the right PPD file is installed in 
/use/local/share/cups/model and CUPS finds the printer. When I try to 
print the printer wakes up but it never prints anything - both via 
network and locally.


If I connect a GNU/Linux machine wih the exact same setup and prints 
from it to the OpenBSD machine with CUPS running - it prints perfectly.


I will try to do a little more research on this since printing from KDE 
with CUPS always seems to be fairly easy.


Best regards,
Rico.
