So do you set that in client.conf?  Or on the server?  I've never done 
it that way, so I need guidance.  In the past setting the server in 
client.conf has always allowed me to find the printers.  OTOH, if 
printing from the CL works, they *are* being found.  It does seem to be 
just kde.  All help gratefully received, as always.  I'll also ask on 
the kde lists.
