You can look for "print.printer_PostScript/default". Actually I saw
lots of options in iceape for this printer, but as it didn't work by
setting 1st the print command, I just didn't want to go ahead and
blindly set by hand all those options. Maybe there's a specific one
that might do the trick, but just looking at the options I couldn't
figure it out...
BTW, I'm using iceweasel 3.0.3. Maybe that makes the difference
between your iceweasel and mine, :).

I've always used iceape, just a matter of taste, but requiring this
web-based ms-communicator thing made me some time back start using
iceweasel... I had to also start using icedove, when I always used
the mail piece of iceape, because of its lack of calendar support
(again required for mettings and the like)...
