I setup my printer (an old HP Deskjet 610C) with CUPS and HPIJS drivers. So far, I have just a rather minimal install. 1) CUPS test page comes out nice. 2) Non-KDE apps such as Mozilla or Opera will print OK. 3) KDE apps (tested: KEdit, KWord, Konqueror) will freeze everytime I try to open the print menu. I have about 8 months Linux experience ( = average user). I posted this problem to the otherwise very responsive Gentoo forum, without getting any clues. Then I went to the linuxprinting.org forum and posted it there, and some guru informed me that "this was clearly a KDE bug". I have KDE 3, the version that came on the portage tree a week or so ago.

what printing system are You using in control center -> system -> printing manager?
did you start cups? /etc/init.d/cups start.
Can you print a test page from the control center print settings module?
Please answer the above questions, otherwise we cannot help you.
