Sounds like your using the CUPS print system. Have you tried to use the
generic LPD Unix print system?

<div>Anyone out there having trouble printing with mandy 8.2? I have
used the kde print tool and everything looks as if it should work, it
just doesn't. I have verified that the printer works fine. It is an hp
photosmart p1000. kde found the right driver in its list and applied it.
It has a name and port address. I did however get a pop-up screen when
finalizing the config that said:(in Kmail) kde has logeed a request to
access local host on port 631 but requires a password. It brings up my
local login name and when I use my password it kicks it back as invalid.
Any Ideas on how to solve this?</div>
