I didn't get a chance to compile kde-3.5 with cups-1.2 yet (I was hoping lots 
from these past meager holidays,  but they ended up as mostly recuperating 
after a particularly burning year). 

The fact that I have an oldish distro (suse-9.3) adds more work too.

It's in my most pressing plans though. Only then I would see what happens. 
Bear with me.

Thanks
