I tried this as well, because I want to print cheques.  I have only one 
printer, and it is not on a network.

When I go to "Print Cheques" I see only "Print to File" initially, then 
apparently my Epson CX3100 is detected, it appears in the screen, and 
the "Print" button becomes active.  I didn't take it any further, except to 
note that "Print Preview" looked O.K.

I haven't tried to customize the cheques yet, but the end result looks similar 
to before.  Mandriva Spring has added a new locale for en-AU.  It is about 
time; New Zealand has had its own for a while.
