Sorry to tell you this, but you can't configure KDE-4 for printers
because KPrint does not exist in KDE-4. So, you must have CUPS. There
is a KDE version of the System-Printer front end for CUPS, but I suggest
using: http://localhost:631 to configure it.

As I said, there is not KDE print system in KDE-4, Qt uses CUPS directly.
