Details

when trying to print a html page in konqueror the dialog hangs
same if you try printing text from kwrite for example
it shows on console:
WARNING: KFilterBase::findFilterByExtension : no filter found for text/plain
it seems to be bug:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73041
it is not fixed in arch yet
the bug happens only if you are using cups!
setting printing to LPD works
also printing from non kde apps using kprinter works
the upcoming 3.2.1 will fix it i think because  bug 73041  is closed
This task depends upon

bug will be solved in kde 3.2.1

use LPD or generic LPD in settings as workaround till then

I can confirm this, although even external programs won't print with kprinter

KPDF, kghostview etc don't give any errors but print the correct ammount of pages - unfortunately they are blank

yes the same problem with me
with external programs i mean OO or Mozilla
they print without a problem KDE 3.2.1 is out and will hopefully soon build
i think then it's solved
