I've never seen something like this in kprinter..

My version of kprinter says "raw" if there is no driver for
a queue. And it still has the "Advanced Settings" tab enabled.

Markus said initially about his system:

  Version: KDE 3.2.1
  Installed from: SuSE RPMs 
  OS: Linux 

Which SUSE version is that? And is it indeed SUSE? Or did he install
SUSE-RPMs onto another system?
