Both the output dir and and file name are set by the application using GTK. 
See: http://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/tree/demos/gtk-demo/printing.c?id=3.1.12

Output is meant to be a fallback option for application that have not
implemented this.

First things first I have filled this bug to improve the GTK api to make this 
simpler for applications to implement.

Once this is implemented its a matter of working through the list and creating 
patches for each application.
