I'll respond to this rather than the other respondents of this node.
<P>
All of the other tools that already exist work fine, I can get network and local printers to work great. But I should have to go to http://www.linuxprinting.org to get my printer to work. There should be a straight forward, easy to find, consistant place to setup the printer.

First post here (can you tell). Forget the duplicate post and that "should" should be "shouldn't".

Sigh... (Bangs head against desk)...

Recent distributions include a package containing a bunch of drivers for
many printers (taken from linuxprinting.org). In that case, you don't need
to go there, all available drivers are listed when installing a printer.
You have 2 ways around: either you install all possible drivers on your
HD, but the major drawbacks are waste of space and new printers not supported,
or you can simply download the driver from linuxprinting.org (not a very
big deal) and use the "Other" button when a driver is requested in kdeprint.
