KDVI can print your DVI files using the standard KDE
printing interface. Internally, KDVI uses the program
dvips to generate PostScript®, which is then
passed on to the printer. In particular, dvips
must be installed if you want to print with KDVI. The program
dvips uses its own configuration files and its
own settings, which are fine for most purposes. However, if you
care for optimal printing results, you should configure
dvips manually and make sure to set a default
MetaFont mode which fits your printer best — on many systems
you'll find a GNU-texinfo documentation
of dvips, and you might also want to
look for a file called dvips.dvi
or
similar.
