gui printer config will not open


Hello,

I'm running FC4 on a p3 766 w256mb ram. Everything is great, considering i'm still new to Linux, but the printer configuration tool. I 2x click on it, watch it start and then shutdown without and error message. If I hop into the terminal and enter the system-config-printer, I get this error message.
=============================
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/sbin/system-config-printer", line 9, in ?
import queueTree
File "/usr/share/printconf/util/queueTree.py", line 1241, in ?
queueTree()
File "/usr/share/printconf/util/queueTree.py", line 269, in __init__
self.active_spooler = self.get_active_spooler ()
File "/usr/share/printconf/util/queueTree.py", line 291, in get_active_spooler return which
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'which' referenced before assignment
=============================
I really want to set this printer up as a home network printer.

BTW - the printer is a Lexmark Z11. I found, installed and did a test print of the Linux Z11 driver from sourceforge.org, but I did not see the printer in the text editor, or other apps.

Thank You
