What you've tried isn't available on Unix, only on Windows to a certain degree. You can, however, use "-print" on the command-line which uses the Java2D/AWT-Renderer to print on the default printer. But you can't specify the printer this way. The usual tip for what you're trying to do is documented here: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.20.5/output.html#general-direct-output i.e. use the "lp" command-line tool to send a PS or PCL file to an LPR-enabled printer.
One day I'm going to reimplement an LPR client like I already did once (Too bad I don't own the code). Then we could do things like you want directly.
