Please try to get some valuable backtrace. printer-applet is a python application, so it should be possible to get full backtrace. Oh, I cannot reproduce it and I'm using 4.3.9999 (same code in printer-applet as in 4.3.2).
OK, I tried to get a trace using python-ptrace (gdb does not recognize printer-applet-kde as an executable) and here is what I get.

Does your printer-applet package install statereason.py? Do you have system-config-printer-common installed? Please wait a bit for system-config-printer-common1.1.13 to be added to tree, it may fix your issue.

Maybe the inclusion in portage fixes it .... how I don't know (unless there is an update I am not aware of).
I reinstalled the following packages: app-admin/system-config-printer-common-1.1.13 kde-base/system-config-printer-kde-4.3.2 kde-base/printer-applet-4.3.2 It did not solve my problem.
Well, I'm running out of ideas, your sip and PyQt4 version? your could try to run emerge -vaDu world to ensure system is in consistent state. Also, have you been upgrading python recently? (and/or for instance switched to python3)
dev-python/sip-4.9 dev-python/PyQt-4.6 Both from the qting-edge overlay. This could be the problem.
(In reply to comment #8) > dev-python/sip-4.9 > dev-python/PyQt-4.6 > > Both from the qting-edge overlay. This could be the problem. > I have the same error. Next command solved it. Try that: printer-applet-kde --show
perhaps this bug is a reflex in a bug somewhere else $ printer-applet-kde --show ASSERT failure in QDBusConnection::registerObject: "Invalid object path given", file qdbusconnection.cpp, line 706 KCrash: Application 'printer-applet-kde' crashing...
Is this still a problem with more recent versions (kde, pyqt, sip, ...)?
This problem is resolved in recent versions. Please, close bug
I'm sorry, there is no problem for kde 4.4, but i don't know what about 4.3
Well 4.3 is gone now...
printer-applet crashed too. KDE 4.7.4 denise@LAPdenise ~ $ printer-applet-kde KCrash: Application 'printer-applet-kde' crashing... KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/drkonqi from kdeinit sock_file=/home/denise/.kde4/socket-LAPdenise/kdeinit4__0 Any ideas?
