This is an aspect of Gentoo that I don't understand very well. the various kioslaves block other packages and vice-versa. For example, kdepim blocks kdepim-kioslaves, and kdebase blocks kdebase-kioslaves. Same goes for kdemultimedia and kdemultimedia-kioslaves. As a test, I unmerged kdepim

Thanks, now I have samba and cups in my USE flags in make.conf. The link was made by emerge when I emerged samba. Still no go. Will I have to ``emerge --newuse''? (That would be more a task for weekend-computing). BTW: The printer is a Canon iR2270, which is reported to work with a PCL driver
