   Can't figure out how to use a CUPS print

   Hi,   
      
   I have CUPS running, and printing, on another Linux box. CUPS is installed, but   
   not running, on the local box. On this box, Slackware 15, KDE, I get this far:   
      
   https://i.ibb.co/Tt8jxL7/print-settings.png   
      
   If I close that window, everything is lost, I have to connect again to the   
   server. Even with that window still open, from any application, if I try to   
   print, I get a "No printer available" type of message.   
      
   What am I missing? I've seen plenty of CUPS tutorial around, but no one   
   covering   
   this case.   
      
   Thanks for any hint.
