The KDE stuff is actually based on system-config-printer (it's called
system-config-printer-kde and it requires system-config-printer-libs). At
least Ubuntu is shipping system-config-printer as well, and as Kubuntu
didn't want to ship GTK+ stuff, they made the KDE version and contributed it
to upstream KDE. But it tends to lag behind the GTK+ one. :-(
The most straightforward workaround for the authorization issue is to run
"kdesu system-config-printer-kde".
