It doesn't use QPrinter/KPrinter at all. 
Comment 2 gerard 2003-12-06 08:07:55 UTC
The kfax printing dialog is very bad :
default printer is lpr
default page size is us letter
no way to save the settings
not resizable and too short labels place

Just throw this dialog away and call kprinter when printing faxes !

CVS commit by deller: 

- This is now KFax version 3.3.0
- use KPrinter instead of self-made printer dialog
- drop dependency on the external programs fax2tiff and tiff2ps - we do the printing ourself (this fixes the problem, that most people couln't print, because those tools were not installed on the user's computer and KFax didn't even printed an error message if they weren't installed)
- lots of other small cleanups
