Use something like:

dcop kded kdeprintd print "touch /tmp/debug.txt" '(' "/tmp/debug2.txt"
')' false

where /tmp/debug.txt does not exists and /tmp/debug2.txt exists. What's
happening internally is that:
1) kdeprint checks the existence and readability of the files given as
second argument
2) kdeprint builds the command to execute by taking the first argument
and replacing the tag "$out" with the list of files given as second
argument; then it executes the command
3) kdeprint removes the files given as second argument if the 3rd
argument
is true

So, for the command above, step 1 will succeed. And if step 2 also
succeeds
the file /tmp/debug.txt should be created.

Michael.
