If we right-click on the 'Printers' systray item, we have two options which are both named 'Configure Printers'. One of them is for the plasmoid, and the other is for the systemwide KCM. They should be renamed, since the only way to currently distinguish between them is the icon.

Similar bugs, but for other plasmoids: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=407561 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=407560
Yet another case of a config window with only one thing in it, and a KCM that has all the real options. I think we should delete the config window and put the single UI choice into the widget's own UI, or its context menu.
One of the last cases of this.

Git commit 7429802113a9efc89fba79649c209ed7836a9c76 by Nate Graham. Committed on 08/05/2021 at 05:24. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. [applet] Remove config dialog and put options in Hamburger menu This commit deletes the applet's config dialog and puts its three mutually-exclusive options for what to show into the applet's hamburger menu, exactly like how the Disks & Devices applet does it. This allows removing the action to show the applet's config dialog, which means there is now only a single "configure" action and it opens the KCM. The net result is a UI that is cleaner, less confusing, and more consistent, with the options made more discoverable.
