Or you can simply change
Preferences -> Printer -> Printing command
to Other... kprinter

so that when you hit F4, the KDE Print dialog box (kprinter) shows up and 
you can select a printer or cancel.
That's what I did when I was under KDE.
Now that I use Debian/Gnome, I don't know the command for the print dialog 
box... Does anyone know it ?
