It would be a strange downgrade from 3.5, since I have to say, the kde printing manager I found much better than gnome-cups-manager. gnome-cups-manager never sees anything useful printers on networks when I tried it, but kde print manager (whatever it's called) could find lots of stuff. But if the two users are getting different behavior, that's not consistent with what I tried. I'm sure kedit was accessing something else, but in any case, it's a simple test case none-the-less. ~daid
