list, but does not have printer detection functionality.

 in a Terminal window, then click 

Print Spooling.

printtool is the recommended printing tool. The program contains an integrated 

printer driver list, but does not have printer detection functionality.

printerdrake is the recommended printing tool. It contains an integrated printer

su

 to temporarily change to the root user), and type 

the command 

/usr/sbin/printconf-tui

 from a shell prompt.
