+<para>The <acronym>print</acronym> KIOSlave gives quick access to browse
+different &tdeprint; sections via <quote>virtual folders</quote>.
+These folders provide some information about and quick access to your print
+subsystem.</para>
+
+<para><command>print:/</command> represents one more of those useful
+KIOSlaves implemented by &kde;. To access it, just type <userinput>print:/
+ </userinput> into the address field of &konqueror;. <userinput>print:/
+ </userinput> doesn't purely provide <quote>read-only</quote> access to
+ your print subsystem, but it also allows you to change settings
+ of your printers, of your print system and lets you create new printers
+ and classes.</para>
+
+<para>You are asked for the Administrator or root password, if you are
+not allowed a view or an operation as a normal user.</para>
+
+<para>You can bookmark frequently used shortcuts like
+ <command>print:/manager</command></para>
+
+<para>Valid syntax is either
+<userinput>print:/[path-to-virtual-folder]</userinput> or
+<userinput>print:[path-to-virtual-folder]</userinput></para>
+
+<para>Note, that some of the views and actions offered do heavily
+ depend on the print subsystem that is installed on your box and presently
+activated for &kde;. Pages showing printer information display only
+those parts that are valid for the &kde; selected print subsystem.
+(So if you normally run <acronym>CUPS</acronym>, but switched temporarily to
+
+
+ <quote>Generic UNIX LPD Printing</quote>, which is possible, you will see
+less printer info, because LPD is not capable of using the same amount of
+print settings as are possible in CUPS).</para>
