As you've discovered, Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard does away with the Printer Setup Utility application, which provided an intuitive GUI method for doing two things that the Leopard Print & Fax pane doesn't make apparent:
- Resetting the Printing System
- Adding printers via the Advanced method (in Tiger, Option-click the More Printers... button)
But these features are still here, just in new spots. To reset the printing system in Leopard, open the Print & Fax pane, then control-click in the Printers sidebar. There it is: Reset printing system. And the advanced method is available in a toolbar button, as detailed in this hint.
