I tried to report this on bugzilla, but could not actually complete submitting 
the error because of a bugzilla problem.

When setup as zeroconf, the default for network setups, my system can't find 
the network printers that are present with the automatic scan.  Since the user 
interface does not allow me to set the parameters for the scan manually, the 
automatic scan function is not usable.  I was not able to find another way 
within printerdrake to set up a network printer. 
 
Using the printer setup in KDE, I found that it was scanning the 
127.0.0 subnet, not the 192.168.1 subnet that my computer was actually on.  

The computer IP was 192.168.1.101, which should have determined the subnet to 
scan.  It appears that both printerdrake and the KDE printer setup are 
using 127.0.0 for the subnet to scan, but the KDE printer setup allows me to 
set the subnet I want it to scan (even if it gives me a warning), allowing me 
to finish my printer setup.
