Hi,
you've got to know the number of pages, lets call it np
Then give the print range: 3-np 
There is no automatic way to do it - is there ?
I dont think there is even a Latex counter that could be used here...

Kdvi kinda still sucks, I could not use it either, because everytime its called
it started recalculating the fonts... Took forever to view a one page document.
I searched the KDE - mailing lists and I honestly dont think Kdvi is maintained
by anyone right now. THe bug is known for quite a while and never got fixed. 

Anyway you can set xdvi resources to fit your screen in .Xresources e.g. 

xdvi*geometry:            945x985+0+0
xdvi..keepPosition:     True
xdvi*background:        white

and so on. Read the manual page, its all there.
Too bad kdvi (and kghostview btw.) are in such a miserable state...
