The hard way (if by that you include lprng), but I was considering changing
to Cups.  
Can moving from Lprng to Cups be any harder than trying to work with Lprng
when I do not really understand it?  

To put it another way, is the setup process with Cups likely to be enough
simpler than with lprng to make up for the additional complication of
changing printing systems entirely?

I own an HP OfficeJet K60xi.  The proper drivers for this printer are not
available in Woody, so for som time now I've put up with decent printing of
text, poor printing from kde apps and mozilla, and terrible printing of
images.
