Well, I mentioned that printer admin tool OOo ships, but Kubuntu doesn't
come with it by default. Anyway it's not needed. My solution, as
mentioned above, goes like this:

1. Open this file '/etc/openoffice/psprint.conf' with your editor of choice 
(needs root).
2. Jump to line 83
3. Read the line like this: "Command="
4. Add the string 'kprinter' to the line
5. Now read the line like this: "Command=kprinter"
6. Save the file
7. Try to (directly) Print in OpenOffice and realize how easy that actually was

I don't know why this so hard to fix this for the Kubuntu guys. I
recently installed Kubuntu 7.04 on my Laptop, which was still running
6.06.1 LTS, It had the same issue, which I just fixed with my solution
from 2006.06.07.

I've added a diff now.
Maybe somebody can tell me what else I can to do to get this fixed in Kubuntu 
7.10.
