These are *solutions* in the sense that these options are specifically there to cope with the various possibilities:

case 1: the calling app pipes the PS to kprinter; in that case, when using kprinter without any option, you shouldn't see the "Files" tab in the main dialog; if it's not the case, you can force it using --stdin option

case 2: the calling app calls kprinter with a temporary file; in that case, you should see the "Files" tab in the main print dialog; however, the common problem is that the temporary file gets deleted by the client before kprinter sends it to CUPS (because the sending process takes place in another process); in that case, the -c option forces kprinter to make a copy of the file, solving that problem
