Print within Kde

i've setup cups. It's work well, I can print form gtk apps, from networked computers (one running Windows another one running Fedora).
But if i try to print a page from kde, I've got a knotify error (a screenshot in french : http://img399.imageshack.us/img399/8418 … 441ao2.png ).

Can you help me to get the ability to print from kde ?

Try changing to LPD (the default) from CUPS in KDE. It's been a long time, but I've had problems like this before.

Re: Print within Kde

I had the same error.
Change your printer device file (ex: /dev/lp0) group from "lp" to "nobody"
