cups/kde madness

[T Kellers]

When printing with kde, using kprinter, without using cups but with Generic 
Unix lpd(OR LPR/LPRNG) lpr I get the following error:

/usr/local/bin/lpr -P 'lj' -#1 'tmp/kde-timothyk/kdeprint_kYcOjKA

lpr:unable to print file:
server-error-service-unavailable.

After I (re)install apsfilter (which unCUPS /etc/printcap)
from a shell, lpr -P lj <filename> works fine

When I pkg_delete -f cups*, I still get the same error.

Is kdeprinter hard-coded to look in /usr/local/bin for lp/lpr?

generic lpr lives in /usr/bin/lpr, and there is no /usr/local/bin/lpr after 
cups was deleted.

Full install of kde3.1.2 on 4.8-STABLE

FreeBSD dhcp187-25.njit.edu 4.8-STABLE FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE #8: Mon Apr 28 
12:35:07 EDT 2003     timothyk at dhcp187-25.njit.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ARGUS

And a full install of kde1.1.2 on 5.1-CURRENT

FreeBSD 128.235.220.97 5.1-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT #3: Thu Jun  5 13:23:34

Both machines do have a full install of gnome2, also, including 
gnomeprint-0.37.

I don't know know if I have a conflict, a misconfiguration or an old-fashioned 
Unix haunting going on here.

Thanks in advance for any ideas.
