I try to add a new network printer via systemsettings/Computer Administration/Printer Configuration/New Printer/New Network Printer. I am selecting connection "Other", entering the device URI, press button "Forward" and a dialog appears with the correct prnter name, description and location. But if I press "OK" the dialog and systemsettings crashes. Starting systemsettings from a konsole i got these: toj@jogi ~ $ systemsettings toj@jogi ~ $ Caught non-fatal exception. Traceback: File "/usr/share/apps/system-config-printer-kde/system-config-printer-kde.py", line 2297, in getPPDs_thread c = cups.Connection () RuntimeError: httpConnectionEncrypt failed Continuing anyway..

same behaviour with 4.3.3: toj@jogi ~ $ Caught non-fatal exception. Traceback: File "/usr/share/apps/system-config-printer-kde/system-config-printer-kde.py", line 2297, in getPPDs_thread c = cups.Connection () RuntimeError: httpConnectionEncrypt failed Continuing anyway.. Caught fatal exception.

What happens with kde-4.3.5 or 4.4.2?
