this was discussed quite extensively on k-c-d already.

the conclusion derived there was to rip out the Print button and replace with 
an "Open With.." button that produces a drop menu with appropriate 
applications (your preferred mail client could be one of them) giving the 
user quick access to all sorts of functions such as cropping, printing, 
scaling, sending, composing, etc.

otherwise we end up with a ksnapshot with 2^10 microfeatures that are actually 
offered by other more competent apps already while making ksnapshot nigh 
unusable. there are so many things one might do with a snapshot: upload to 
flickr, upload to pastebin, crop, resize, add a shadow, add to documentation, 
insert in slide show, email, send via instant message, annotate, 
print, ....... Open With seems like a sane solution.
