[Bug 138756] Re: kubuntu firefox should use kde print system

[Harald Sitter]

Well, there is no kprinter anymore. KDE 4 uses Qt 4's print system and
it doesn't look like this is going to change any time soon. So, in order
to even be able to implement this we'd need a binary we can pipe the
data through (similar to kprint but using Qt 4's printing capabilities).

Since there is no such application at this point, and since I do not
imagine it to be a 5 minutes job, I'll set this bug report's status as
invalid for the package kubuntu-default-settings (straight forward
implementation at this point is simply impossible).

Also a general remark on the bug description. We can not hardcode paper
geometry and name into a default setting, what needs to happen to have
those defined properly (besides the fact that firefox should just detect
the local and select appropriate defaults, which I hope it does anyway)
is to have a firefox addon that queries Qt's printing system for those
information.
