Dear all, I've resolved the problem. It might have been extremely simple, but nevertheless I'm putting it up on the mail list (in case anyone else has the same issue)
HTML files somehow came to be associated with winebrowser (which leads nowhere on my system). This behaviour was odd because I'd never associated html files with any application before on my system. File template specific application preferences - Zim appears to choose the last application used to open a given file (at least on XFCE). Thus, pointing any file to the desired application applies it as the default application for that file the next time it is opened from within Zim. The PrinttoBrowser plugin appears to be equivalent to Export As>Templates>Print. Trying to use that as a temporary solution made me understand what the problem was. Thanks to all for your help!
