Thanks for your work on this.
Just wanted to add, that I successfully tested your packages. I was able to
add/delete/modify printers and a hotplugged printes was automatically setup
correctly.

Uploading 1.2.3-1 makes system-config-printer-kde uninstallable though.
So I guess we need to file an RC bug to get system-config-printer-kde updated
and determine how (and if) we are proceeding with the
system-config-printer-{common,gnome} split.

As already said, I don't have any experience with python (packaging), but I find
it a bit strange that system-config-printer-kde uses API from
/usr/share/system-config-printer/. Isn't that internal to s-c-p?
