I got this error when trying to run Printer Configuration settings.


The service 'Printer Configuration' does not provide an interface
'KCModule' with keyword
'system-config-printer-kde/system-config-printer-kde.py' The factory
does not support creating component of the specified type.

Possible reasons:

An error occurred during your last kde upgrade leaving an orphaned
control module.
You have old third party modules lying around.


Please help me to fix this issue.

Thanks in advance.

You need print/cups-base installed and running - service cupsd start - for the printer configuration to work. I'll add a note to pkg-message.

Are you sure that cupsd is running?

I know its running from:

[/usr/home/alie]$ service cupsd start
cupsd already running? (pid=1372).
