how about:

ie .. let mozilla/konqueror/galeon do your rendering locally
but to dump to STDOUT instead
I like the idea of having a real browser do the hard work of managing the display -- but I'm not really quite sure how an "option-to-display-to-stdout" would work. I don't see any such option in the man pages for konqueror or firefox, and in any case I'm not confident that this would result in a postscript file suitable for piping to the printer... Am I missing the boat here?
