This depends on the operating system you are using.

In case of X11, Shift-Insert will paste from the clipboard (most
Motif/QT applications will put things to the clipboard with
Ctrl-Insert). To paste from the primary selection one should use middle
mouse click, as usual (most X11 applications - but not Prima
applications themselves - put things into the primary selection when you
just select text with the mouse). That is, if you select a piece of
text in your xterm, you should be able to use middle mouse button to
paste it to Prima widgets.

I know this sounds confusing. This is because X11 has several
clipboard-like entities.
