Can't we port the KDElibs CUPS stuff ? They have super CUPS integration
(lots of print options etc.). It's LGPL/BSD I believe, so it shouldn't
be much of a problem, unless, of course, the basic architecture is
totally different.

I might be talking off my hindside here since I've only *used* the APIs
and have no idea about the implementation (gnome-print or kdelibs).
