KDE was installed from a package during install. Printing works fine from the commandline as root and user. Googling around, one suggested fix was to recompile /usr/ports/x11/kdelibs3 with WITHOUT_CUPS. I ran "make -DWITHOUT_CUPS install" and that went quite well. I rebooted the machine just to make sure everything restarted. Still no joy trying to print with KDE. Any suggestions as to the next step? Would making some sort of link between /usr/local.bin.lpr and /usr/bin/lpr work? Gary
