OK. It is not installed now.

Not a clue why. Cups seemed to be the default. Is there a 
actual difference? One "better" than the other? How?

I am trying to set Kubuntu to use a Brother MFC-3240C, which is 
connected to a win2k machine elsewhere on our LAN. Cups doesn't 
seem to know anything about that printer model. Would KDE Print 
Manager be able to install that printer - in that configuration - 
without me having to undertake a new course of study to learn 
"what's behind the curtain"? 
(I.E. Can I just Click & Go...? 
That seems to be the goal of Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Mybuntu/Whatever)

cheers,
johnd
