Thank you for mentioning this,

I have already installed:

ii  system-config-printer-common
1.2.3+20100723-0ubuntu8.1                         Printer configuration
GUI

ii  system-config-printer-gnome
1.2.3+20100723-0ubuntu8.1                         Printer configuration
GUI

ii  system-config-printer-udev
1.2.3+20100723-0ubuntu8.1                         Printer
auto-configuration facility based on udev


If I use a shell I can find with tab-extension:

system-config-printer
system-config-printer-applet

Oh I see, this is the same as it is under "System - Drucken" (System -
Printing), which I mentioned in my other post.

I didn't find out, how to define a printer driver with
system-config-printer
