I'm interested in printing only a small portion of it.

I'd like to be able to essentially "print selection".

Of course this would require that each program (gvim, firefox, thunderbird, terminal, whatever) provide such an option.

Alternately, I can copy to my clipboard, and then through some clever utility (I assume there are clipboard utilities?) print from clipboard. This would work with any source, regardless of whether the program supports printing selection or not.

But when I searched I could not find the answer.

Anyone know? Does such a think exist?

$ xclip -o | lpr

but it works only with text... :-)

That's a feature, not a bug! (I'm a vi and command line kinda guy...)
