<title>Introduction</title>
<para>This handbook describes &tdeprint;. &tdeprint; is not a standalone program. It is the new printing framework for &kde; 2.2. &tdeprint; is an intermediate layer between &kde; (or other) applications and the selected (and installed) print subsystem of your OS (&OS;).</para>
<para>It should be noted that both the developer of this application, and the author of this document are most familiar with &CUPS; as a printing system. At the time of writing, &CUPS; is the best supported printing subsystem, and it is the best documented.</para>
<para>This handbook is a work in progress, and later versions of the &tdeprint; software and editions of this handbook will support and explore more closely other printing systems.</para>
<para>In the meantime, even if your printing subsystem is not yet well covered, you are encouraged to explore the <guilabel>Printing Manager</guilabel> module in &kcontrol;, and you will find its operation to hopefully be fairly self evident, no matter what printing subsystem you use.</para>
