Okay, sorry I'm so late replying here (I've been quite busy :) but I
think this may be the issue I'm having.  I've been reading through the
libgnomeprint files in /usr/X11R6/share/gnome/libgnomeprint but I don't
think I should be editing those.  Is there any way I can set a default
location to lpr (other than with symlinks or by changing the PATH), much
like, for instance, the /etc/mail/mailer.conf file works?  Thanks very
much,

  Best wishes,

-lewiz.
