Actually, under KDE, there's an "Actions/Print" context menu item, but personally I open the file in its designated app and print from there. It seems to be missing in GNOME by default, but it's easy enough to press enter, wait a second, press control-P and enter again to queue it for printing. I do notice GNOME's file manager has an "Edit/Send To" menu item which you could use if you really want to just use lpr or enscript. Rob
