I haven't checked through the menus to see where/if it's there, but you can
run system-config-printer from the commandline, or alt+f2.

If you installed from the KDE live CD, then system-config-printer was
excluded from the CD. Set up on-line sources and install it. You should then

I didn't think I had asked anyone to do anything!

I merely pointed out an incongruity, and showed how it could be
overcome.

But I appreciate the clarification. Thank you.

I suspect there are few who don't momentarily slip into that mode
from time to time! 8-))

Apologies to all for letting silly typo "1009.0" out of the door...
