+> KIOSlave gives quick access to browse different &tdeprint; sections via <quote

+>print:/</command
+> represents one more of those useful KIOSlaves implemented by &kde;. To access it, just type <userinput
+>print:/ </userinput
+> into the address field of &konqueror;. <userinput
+>print:/ </userinput
+> doesn't purely provide <quote
+>read-only</quote

Pages showing printer information display only those parts that are valid for the &kde; selected print subsystem. (So if you normally run <acronym
+>CUPS</acronym
+>, but switched temporarily to <quote
+>Generic UNIX LPD Printing</quote
