Well ..

1) Please read the comment the bots added to your PR.
There are steps you need to take before we can even look at your contribution.

2) PRs need a JBS bug ID else the bots will  still reject it.
You'll need to submit an RFE at bugreport.java.com and go from there.

3) I understand your problem up to a point but we'd need to think about the proposed solution and why your Linux doesn't put lpr in the standard place. There could be legitimate
security concerns about allowing such an over-ride.
Perhaps you need a port of OpenJDK to that distro which you don't name ?

I recently ran into trouble with printing on Linux, where the lpr binary was on 
a non-standard path
(not in /usr/bin/lpr). After looking in the code, I found out that this path 
cannot be overridden.
It seems that such paths should be able to be overriden, and so, I propose to 
add a system property
named "sun.print.lprPath" and "sun.print.lpPath" to override these paths. See 
the PR below.
