The shortcuts of all settings are located at /usr/share/applications. You can copy the printer settings shortcut to the desktop with:
cp /usr/share/applications/system-config-printer.desktop ~/Desktop
Or use the GUI to copy it... You then have to make it executable, by right-clicking it --> Properties --> Permissions tab --> Mark 'allow executing file as program'.
done.
