Modules for different print subsystems

KDEPrint uses different modules to realize the interface to the possible print subsystems. Not all the modules are yet developed fully, but you will have basic printing functionality with:

Most importantly, full support for CUPS is already there. Modules for other print subsystems, such as PLP, PPR and PDQ may be available later.

KDEPrint makes KDE much more flexible. It gives freedom of choice to KDE 2.2 users. To use different available print subsystems, these must, of course, be installed independently from KDE. In former versions, users were stuck with the old LPD style print subsystems. Now they can even use CUPS. In the future, there will be easy integration of new subsystems, as they appear on the scene.
