--- Comment #4 from John Layt <john layt net>  2009-01-02 20:10:59 ---
KDEPrint in KDE3 is unmaintained and will have no more new features
implemented.  This request will never be implemented in KDEPrint as a result.  

In KDE4.2 onwards printer administration has been replaced by
system-config-printer-kde which is just a front-end for the
system-config-printer project and only supports printers configured through
CUPS (see http://cyberelk.net/tim/software/system-config-printer/).  In KDE4.0
onwards the print dialog is provided by Qt and only supports printers known to
CUPS and LPD.

Printer detection now lies outside KDE and only printers know to and configured
through CUPS and/or LPD are supported.  If CUPS does not support the required
network protocol then a feature request would need to be raised with CUPS to
correct this.  Any issues with the new KDE front-end would require a separate
request to be raised.

Closing.
