That's what I thought, thanks Goffioul for the confirmation.
After this point, the next step is making available to a Linux Machine 
(dedicated print server) to implement mailbox server features.
I don't think the best interface for the users would be a kde enviroment (may 
be I'm wrong) it's better a webpage interface where users just reach the pc 
by the printer and press their user icon in a full screen kiosk mode 
konqueror, introduce a password and let the job go in front of them 
(http://localhost:631)
But, I nice configuration dialog at kprint would be really useful, maybe in 
the users tab and quotas, we can add this feature (sorry I am not a 
developer)
At this moment, the public high school that is being used as a lab doesn't 
need password implementation cause an educative center is not a dangerous 
enviroment (at last in this case)
Any Ideas?
yours:
Néstor Díaz
