Yes I am printing from the Gimp print dialog. And changing the printer in the printer setup does not affect the print command Gimp is choosing. And it is printing fine as I wrote in my original post. The only problem I have is that in the print job list every print job from Gimp has the name '(stdin)'. I would like the name of the printed file to appear there and from the lpr side this is done via the '-C' option. Now I need Gimp to insert the file name into the print command. So the print command specification in the printer setup should be something like 'lpr -C $filename' where Gimp is replacing $filename with the actual file name. BTW, I am printing through CUPS. I don't know whether CUPS' lpr differs from standard lpr.
