+<para>This handbook describes &kdeprint;. &kdeprint; is not a standalone
+program. It is the new printing framework for &kde; 2.2. &kdeprint;
+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
+&kdeprint; 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>
