Copy /usr/share/autostart/printer-applet.desktop to
$HOME/.kde/Autostart and add Hidden=true to the bottom, e.g. on a
terminal:
cp /usr/share/autostart/printer-applet.desktop ~/.kde/Autostart/
echo 'Hidden=true' >> ~/.kde/Autostart/printer-applet.desktop

Identically named files in your personal autostart directory override
those in the systemwide directories, and adding "Hidden=true" disables
it from autostarting.  This way you can disable it without removing
the package or affecting other users on your system.
