Recently, kde seems to have added many of the features that were
previously only available in xpp (ie integration with cups). In the old
days, when you printed, you printed to the default printer. Then xpp
came along and you could just pipe the output to xpp and you could
choose the printer you wanted to print to. Now, the cups integration
allows you to select which printer you want directly from the kde print
dialog.
At this point, I still prefer to use xpp because I can do things like:
cat file.txt | xpp
-or-
xpp file.txt
