That would explain the problem Uwe is having with iceape.
Uwe, you could install firefox for comparison (which still uses
xprint). What is your underlying print server? iceape should pick up
CUPS printers automatically, but I'm not sure how it handles other
systems. The idea would be the same though. You add new printers via
the printer system interface, not in iceape itself, but iceape should
pick them up.
As far as XPSERVERLIST goes, you're doing the right thing setting it in
your user environment. Since startx is a manual approach, it doesn't
seem to be using the automatic /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ scripts (despite
what /etc/X11/Xsession says), so their effect has to be also invoked by
hand. If you didn't want to hardwire :64, you could use
export XPSERVERLIST="`/etc/init.d/xprint get_xpserverlist`"
or
. /etc/X11/Xsession.d/92xprint-xpserverlist
