Confirmed. Note, however, that “Applications -> System Tools -> Administration -> Printing” (aka. system-config-printer) works fine.

Anyway, that’s a regression vs. 1.0.1, that only had one place to configure printers, that did work fine.

Installing cups-pk-helper seems to be enough to fix this bug.
